Automate GDPR video redaction before publication

Automate GDPR video redaction before publication

Under GDPR, video can contain personal data through faces, voices, plates, uniforms, name tags, and contextual identifiers. BGBlur helps teams redact that data before content goes to websites, social channels, training libraries, or external partners. Instead of treating anonymization as a manual editing bottleneck, you can upload footage and apply AI redaction in a repeatable online workflow.

Blur faces and license plates for EU-facing content

The most common GDPR video redaction tasks involve faces in public scenes and license plates in street or parking footage. BGBlur detects both automatically, making it easier to publish event recaps, store footage, construction updates, and customer-facing media without exposing incidental individuals or vehicle identifiers captured in the background.

Support erasure and minimization workflows

Support erasure and minimization workflows

When a data subject requests removal or when your team needs a minimized version of a clip, redaction can be more practical than deleting an entire asset. BGBlur helps create anonymized copies that reduce identifiability while preserving the business value of the original recording for reporting, training, or documentation.

Useful for marketing, HR, events, and operations teams

GDPR video redaction is not only a legal-team task. Marketing, HR, event, retail, and operations teams all publish video that may include employees, customers, visitors, or passersby. BGBlur gives non-specialists a straightforward way to redact personal data before release, reducing privacy risk across everyday content workflows.
