Search Exclusion Feature

Search Exclusion Feature 

The Search Exclusion feature gives users precise control during the redaction process, allowing them to exclude specific terms from being automatically redacted. This guarantees that critical information remains visible, making the redaction process more efficient and accurate.

For example, if a legal team needs to redact a document, they might exclude specific legal terms from redaction to maintain clarity. By using the Search Exclusion feature, the legal team can redact sensitive information such as client names, financial figures, and confidential case details while keeping essential terms like statutes, legal precedents, or procedural language visible. This approach ensures the document remains contextually accurate and useful while upholding the highest standards of data security.

Why It Matters

The Search Exclusion feature keeps you in control of what remains visible and what’s hidden in your documents.

Key benefits of the search exclusion feature include:

• Increased Accuracy: Specify which terms should stay unredacted, preventing over-redaction.
• Time Efficiency: Streamline the redaction process by reducing the need for manual corrections.
• Customizable Lists: Create and manage personalized exclusion lists tailored to various projects.
• Consistency: Use the same exclusion lists across multiple documents for uniform results.
