What Gets Detected

euRedact detects 27 PII entity types across 31 European countries with 98.3% recall and 98.9% precision, backed by 345 pattern definitions and 44 checksum validators. Those figures come from a generated evaluation set of 152,300 records, and assume the optional countries parameter is supplied — passing it lifts recall from 94.4% and precision from 95.2%, and runs 3.5x faster. Date-of-birth detection is excluded and sits at 40.6% by design; bare dates are deferred to the LLM tier.
