Find personal data before sharing.
The Open buttons send the prompt text as currently shown below to that site only when you click. Fill in the placeholders first.
[VERIFY] is an editorial flag, not a blank to fill. Wherever the prompt shows [VERIFY], check that item against a reliable source before you use it.
Screen a spreadsheet or dataset for personal data before I share it. Intended recipient and purpose: [RECIPIENT_AND_PURPOSE]. Column headers and a few sample rows with real values replaced by fake ones: [HEADERS_AND_FAKE_SAMPLE]. Number of rows and how data was obtained: [ROWS_AND_SOURCE]. Check each item and report Found, Not found, or Possible: [ ] Direct identifiers: names, emails, phone numbers, addresses, ID numbers, account numbers, IP addresses, usernames [ ] Indirect identifiers that can single out a person in combination: date of birth, postal code, job title, rare attributes [ ] Sensitive categories: health, ethnicity, religion, sexuality, union membership, finances, criminal records, children [ ] Free-text columns that may contain personal details [ ] Hidden sheets, hidden columns, comments, tracked changes, and document properties containing data [ ] Formulas or links that expose other files [ ] Filters that hide rows that will still be in the file [ ] Small groups that make individuals identifiable even without names For each finding, recommend an action: remove, aggregate, mask, pseudonymize, generalize (for example age bands), or get consent. Provide a de-identification plan, a test to try re-identifying a person in the result, and a list of questions to confirm the right to share [VERIFY]. Do not ask me to paste real personal data.
