### 👉 **Anonymize Elements**

Need to anonymize certain aspects of your product screens? Here are a few ways to go about it:&#x20;

* **Blur elements** - Click on any element and blur the content — useful to protect sensitive data/PII
* **Hide elements** - Useful if you want to remove an element but don't want the screen to auto-align. This also gives you the option to "un-hide" the element at a later point.
* **Delete elements** - Remove elements from your screen and auto-adjust screen alignment.&#x20;
