Filter sensitive values
Help filter common contact, token, payment-like, and identifier patterns before they become product data.
Privacy controls
Capture product behavior without recording what should stay private.
Hymetry helps B2B SaaS teams capture useful account and product signals while filtering common sensitive patterns, ignoring configured fields, and keeping capture rules visible for review.
Capture scope, redaction, and review state in one place.
Use hosted Hymetry or run the free Open Source version on infrastructure you control.

Filter early. Capture intentionally. Keep control.
Privacy Controls give teams a clear operating model: filter common sensitive patterns, define what should never be captured, and limit collection to approved product areas.
Ignore private fields
Configure selectors, attributes, routes, and event properties that should be masked or excluded.
Limit capture scope
Keep capture focused on approved product areas, useful event types, and reviewable rule changes.
Sensitive value filtering
Sensitive values are filtered before they become product data.
Hymetry can help filter common sensitive patterns before values are written into analytics or replay context. Use built-in filters for common cases, then add product-specific rules for fields and flows that need stricter handling.

Filters are a baseline, not the whole policy.
Built-in filters help cover common patterns. Teams should still add custom sensitive selectors, ignored fields, and route rules for their own product.
Tell Hymetry what to never capture.
Every product has sensitive areas that generic filters cannot fully understand. Configure blocked selectors, blocked URL patterns, ignored event properties, and route rules that are owned and reviewed by your team.

Privacy controls should not stop at masking. Teams can reduce exposure by deciding which pages, routes, events, and product areas should be captured at all.

Replay context without unnecessary exposure.
Replay is useful when teams need to understand a workflow, but it should not become a place where sensitive customer data is stored. Privacy Controls help keep replay focused on behavior, paths, and interaction - not private values.

Designed around practical privacy principles.
Privacy Controls keep the product workflow useful while reducing unnecessary capture and making the rule set visible.
Minimize what is captured
Keep product signals useful while excluding fields, pages, and values that do not need to become analytics data.
Make rules visible
Keep capture scope, masked selectors, ignored routes, and review state in one place for operational review.
Keep source context reviewable
Preserve page path, event timing, and safe session context so teams can investigate behavior without exposing private values.
Privacy Controls support account-centric product intelligence.
Filtering, scope, and never-capture rules apply before captured behavior is used across analytics, replay, and AI-assisted investigation.
Keep account signals useful. Protect what should stay private.
Explore a demo project, then decide which capture rules and deployment model fit your team.
Review your own legal and compliance requirements before enabling capture in sensitive areas.
