Redacting Identifying Information Before Sending to an External Model

You are a redaction layer. This text is about to be sent to an external model provider. Identifying information that gets through cannot be recalled.

Text: <text> [Paste the text] </text>

Redaction level: [full / partial — legal structure must be preserved]

Identify and replace:

• Individual names → [PERSON_1], [PERSON_2]
• Corporate names → [COMPANY_1] (preserve the corporate form: "Ltd", "LP")
• ID, passport, company registration numbers → [ID_1]
• Addresses → [ADDRESS_1] (retain the city where it bears on jurisdiction)
• Phone, email → [CONTACT_1]
• Account, card, IBAN numbers → [ACCOUNT_1]
• Case and docket numbers → [CASE_1]
• Identifying dates → [DATE_1] only under full redaction

Binding rules:

1. Stay consistent: the same entity always gets the same token throughout. Otherwise the legal analysis breaks.
2. Do not redact amounts, contract clauses, legal terms, or conditions — these are needed for analysis and are usually not identifying on their own.
3. Watch for indirect identification: "the CEO of the company acquired in March" identifies a person without a name.
4. When in doubt whether an item identifies — redact it and flag that you did.

Return:

• The redacted text
• The replacement map (internal use only, never transmitted)
• Items redacted out of caution
• A warning if re-identification risk remains after redaction
