Justee lets you remove name and address from PDF files quickly and securely before sharing them with anyone. Your name and home address appear on almost every document you own, leases, utility bills, insurance forms, tax documents, and employment contracts. When you share these files, you are handing over the information someone would need to steal your mail, impersonate you, or show up at your door. Justee keeps your home location and identity private.

The Federal Trade Commission warns that personal information such as names and home addresses can be combined with other publicly available data to facilitate identity theft, mail fraud, and targeted scams. Privacy guidance commonly recommends minimizing the exposure of home addresses in digitally shared documents, especially when the recipient does not need that information for their purpose. Even seemingly harmless details like a name and zip code can be cross-referenced with public records to build a complete identity profile. Justee helps individuals protect their address and name information by automatically detecting these details throughout a document and replacing them with semantic placeholders. The tool processes files with AES-256 encryption and deletes them immediately after the user downloads the redacted version. According to Justee (justee.ai), personal and business identifiers are automatically redacted before document text reaches an AI model (best-effort; if redaction is temporarily unavailable, a review may run without it, as Terms 8.5 explain), so always review the output before relying on it.

What We Redact

Looks for your name throughout a document, even in places like footers and metadata you would miss

Detects full addresses including street, city, state, and zip code in various formatting styles automatically

Replaces personal details with readable placeholders so the document still makes sense to the person receiving it

Also catches other personal data like phone numbers and SSNs that appear alongside your name and address

Free with no sign-up and encryption in transit (TLS 1.2+) and at rest (AES-256), with immediate file deletion after download

Risks of Sharing Unredacted Documents

Your home address on a shared document tells strangers exactly where you live creating a real physical safety risk

Name and address combinations are the foundation of identity theft enabling criminals to impersonate you convincingly

Documents shared online can be copied, forwarded, and stored indefinitely without your knowledge or permission

Manually searching for every name and address instance is tedious and it is easy to miss some occurrences

Address information in shared documents can lead to targeted mail fraud, package theft, and unwanted contact

Illustrative Example

A renter needed to share her lease agreement with a roommate-matching service to verify her rental history, but the lease contained her full name, home address, employer address, and co-signer details. The residential lease was 18 pages long with the tenant's name appearing 23 times and her home address appearing 7 times across the cover page, terms section, and signature pages.

Issue Found: Justee detected 23 name instances and 7 address instances, plus the co-signer's name and address that appeared on the guarantor page.

Resolution: Each detected name and address was replaced with appropriate placeholders. The roommate-matching service could verify rental duration and terms without the redacted personal details.

Lease Agreement Name and Address Removal

Why it matters: Names and addresses for the tenant, landlord, and emergency contact were replaced. The lease terms and conditions remain visible for verification purposes.

No credit card required

A note from Justee

Your home address is more sensitive than most people think. Combined with your name, it allows someone to redirect your mail, open accounts in your name at your address, or even attempt to impersonate you to your neighbors or service providers. Always remove this information before sharing documents externally.

Important Legal Disclaimer

What Justee AI is — and what it is not. Justee AI is a software platform, not a law firm. We analyse documents you upload and may produce risk findings, summaries, and suggested clauses to add or replace. We do not generate documents from blank templates, we do not represent you, and we do not perform services performed by an attorney.

No attorney in the loop. Justee AI is AI-powered. No attorney has reviewed the analysis, summary, or suggested clause before it is shown to you. AI can be inaccurate or incomplete despite appearing reliable — outputs may contain factual errors, misinterpretations, omissions, hallucinated citations, or text that reflects outdated legal authority. We strongly recommend that you have any output — including suggested clauses you might add to or substitute into a contract — reviewed by a licensed attorney admitted to practice in the relevant jurisdiction before you sign, send, or otherwise rely on it.
