How it works

Redact a resume in a few clear steps

Upload a PDF or DOCX. Choose your redaction mode. Download the anonymized file. CV files are processed locally. Payments, licence checks, analytics and error reporting use online services.

1

Upload the resume

Drag a PDF or DOCX onto the tool. The file is read into browser memory only — it never leaves your device.

2

Choose a redaction mode

Standard PII, Bias Strip, Client Submission, or Blind Review. Each mode removes a different layer of identifying information.

3

Processed in your browser

pdf.js and pdf-lib draw black redaction bars over PII positions directly in the original file — preserving layout, fonts, and formatting.

4

Download the redacted resume

The redacted file downloads directly to your device. The Blob URL is immediately revoked — nothing is retained or cached.

Who it's for

Built for Canadian HR teams and recruiters

In-house HR teams

Run structured blind hiring at scale. Remove personal information before resumes reach the scoring panel — with an audit log documenting every redaction for your privacy officer.

Staffing and recruitment firms

Submit candidate profiles to clients without exposing personal contact details. Protect candidates from direct poaching while staying PIPEDA-consistent.

Compliance and legal teams

Document a defensible, bias-reducing hiring workflow. Federally regulated employers under the Employment Equity Act can use anonymised resume handling as part of their documented equity programme.

DEI and talent acquisition leads

Implement structured blind review without replacing your ATS. NullifyCV works on any PDF or DOCX — no integration, no procurement process required.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

No single tool makes an entire process compliant. NullifyCV supports data minimisation by keeping CV redaction on your device. Review every output and assess your complete hiring workflow with your Privacy Officer or legal counsel.
No. Processing happens entirely in your browser using pdf.js and mammoth.js. The redaction workflow does not upload your resume. You can verify this by opening DevTools → Network tab while processing a file: you'll see zero outbound requests containing file data.
