The Shield control loop

From exposed data to documented action.

Shield connects the steps most privacy tools leave fragmented: detect the exposure, verify what belongs to you, preserve useful evidence, and move the finding toward a visible outcome.

Conversation and file intakeMasked PII findingsIntegrity-sealed reportsTracked resolution
01
Bring the source

Start with something you already control.

Paste a conversation or email, upload a PDF or screenshot, select a PDF/XLSX for permanent cleanup, or search only the identity fields you approved during onboarding.

  • Text is processed transiently for governance scans
  • Private uploads are scoped to the authenticated account
  • Self-search identifiers require explicit approval
02
Review the match

Separate a signal from a decision.

Shield masks detected values, explains the category and risk, and keeps same-name internet or AI results in review until you accept that they refer to you.

  • Confirm, dismiss, or revisit exposure candidates
  • Inspect provider citations where available
  • Keep raw source content out of the permanent evidence record
03
Create evidence

Export a record another person can review.

The governance report carries masked findings, source and evidence hashes, timestamps, detector version, risk summary, and audit-chain integrity in branded PDF and JSON formats.

04
Resolve and follow through

Choose the outcome the finding needs.

Create a sanitized file, prepare an evidence-linked request, approve the exact outbound message, or protect future prompts through a policy-bound AI agent. Request status stays visible after send.

  • Gmail access is used only for the approved send step
  • Completion is recorded as a timeline event
  • Agent runs preserve route, redaction, usage, and cost metadata
Straight answers

Before you start

Does Shield send a request as soon as it finds something?

No. Identity matching and the exact outbound message remain user-approved steps.

Can I export the result?

Yes. Completed governance scans produce a branded PDF and a machine-readable JSON evidence record.

Where should I begin?

A conversation or file you already know contains personal data is the fastest first scan.

Your first governance scan creates a reviewable baseline for the rest of the workflow.
