<h4>Key Features</h4>
<ul>
<li><strong>Automatic PII Detection</strong>: Intelligently detects multiple types of PII including emails, phone numbers, addresses, credit cards, SSN/My Number, passwords, API tokens, IP addresses, and hosting account IDs</li>
<li><strong>Server-Side Masking</strong>: All masking happens on the server (PHP) for maximum security – cannot be bypassed by users</li>
<li><strong>WordPress Core Support</strong>: Native support for WordPress comments</li>
<li><strong>Community Plugin Support</strong>: Works seamlessly with wpForo, BuddyPress, bbPress, and other popular community plugins</li>
<li><strong>Configurable</strong>: Choose which PII types to mask via easy-to-use settings page</li>
<li><strong>Consent Opt-Out</strong>: Users can include consent phrases to skip masking when sharing personal info publicly</li>
<li><strong>Presidio-Level Detection</strong>: High-accuracy detection with validation (Luhn for credit cards, check digits for My Number)</li>
</ul>
<h4>Supported PII Types</h4>
<ul>
<li>Email addresses (example@domain.com <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> e***@domain.com)</li>
<li>Phone numbers (Japanese mobile/landline, international formats)</li>

<li>Credit card numbers with Luhn validation (4532-1234-5678-9010 <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> ****-****-****-9010)</li>
<li>Social Security Numbers / Japanese My Number with check digit validation</li>
<li>Passwords (masked to [REDACTED])</li>
<li>API Tokens/Keys (partial masking showing first and last 4 characters)</li>
<li>AI API Keys (OpenAI sk-***, Anthropic sk-ant-***, Google AIza***, Hugging Face hf_***, Replicate r8_***, Cohere, Azure OpenAI)</li>

<li>Masks detected PII according to your settings</li>
<li>Content saves normally with masked data</li>
</ol>
<h4>Privacy & Security</h4>

<li>All processing happens on YOUR server (no external API calls)</li>
