# Anonymizing customer data

## 🔐 GDPR and Anonymizing Customer Data

To ensure compliance with customers requests, you can anonymize all customer data in the APP by following the following steps:

1. Go to **Customers** in the main menu.
2. Search for the customer email address.
3. Click on **Anonymize** (*eraser icon*) button for the desired customer record.
4. The system will replace existing customer details with randomly generated data—this masks all sensitive information.

### 📝 Feature Details

* **Anonymization Process**: The feature replaces all personal identifiable customer information (such as name, email, and contact details) with randomized values, ensuring privacy and masking real information.
* **Reversibility**: This action is**&#32;irreversible**—the original data cannot be retrieved once anonymized.
* **Use Cases**: Ideal for deactivating accounts, meeting privacy compliance, or removing outdated test user data.
