# Anonymization

Anonymization is the stage in which the user determines which data should be permanently removed from the resulting version of the document.

The process uses fields detected during **AI Classification** and areas manually added by the user. Before starting anonymization, you can select the appropriate data categories, disable those that should remain visible, and add your own areas intended to be hidden.

After anonymization is performed, the system creates a separate, anonymized version of the document. Data located in the selected areas is permanently removed from the output file, and anonymization is not limited to visually covering it up.

Until the document is archived, the user can return in the system to the classification stage and make changes. However, this does not apply to previously downloaded files; anonymization of each downloaded version is permanent and irreversible.

**Important:** Before performing anonymization, check all pages of the document, the selected categories, and the manually added areas. Data removed from the downloaded file cannot be recovered later.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://bluurdoc.bluur.ai/en/functions/working-with-a-document/stages/anonymization.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
