Acuity AutoRedact

[BlueSkies]

Hi,

 

Does anyone here use Acuity AutoRedact:  https://acuityautoredact.com  for SAR request data?

 

It looks like a very interesting tool but I think I'd need to look into the data processing side of things before jumping in ...   

 

Would appreciate any pointers as what I need to check for before going ahead with the free trial.

 

Thanks

Hi @BlueSkies,

 

I'm one of the Founders of Acuity AutoRedact.

 

We have a Data Processing Policy on our website. For docuements, we process data using in Google's London Data Centre (eu-west2) and use Vertex APIs to access Gemini locally in the data centre with a full enterprise agreement which ensures data is deleted after processing. We keep nothing that is uploaded, unless the file is over 2GB and then we purge after a matter of hours. We ensure that we are fully a processor, never a controller or storage tool.

 

Would you be ok for a quick call (you can book on https://acuityautoredact.com/booking-calendar-page) and one of the team can take you through the whole thing before you have a go with a free account?

Thanks @AndrewJWalls - Does Acuity have the ability to convert .pst to pdf?

We do, yes. We have a converter and our tool will redact pst files too.

I've had quite a few people ring and book demos who've said they saw this thread on EduGeek. So I thought I'd just share that we've built a fully interactive demo of our redaction platform that is preloaded with documents (https://app.acuityautoredact.com/demo).

 

I've done this so you don't need to struggle to find your own documents or get sign off\approval to test the system (which a few EduGeekers have told me when they've called).
