# Special anonymization: barcodes

## Is it possible to anonymize barcodes with Nymiz?

To give you detailed control over your anonymization process, Nymiz provides specific options to anonymize elements such as handwritten or digital signatures, barcodes, QR codes, and more.

For example, to anonymize barcodes in the documents you want to process, simply enable this functionality during the **“Start Process”** step by toggling the switch labeled *“Do you want to remove barcodes from the document?”*

Once this option is enabled and the process begins, Nymiz will automatically detect and remove barcodes from the document—just as shown in the video tutorial below.

**IMPORTANT:** This feature is available for anonymization and pseudonymization using the blacklining method, which means it is not reversible under any circumstances.
