HB26-1422 · Colorado CORA · CRS § 24-72

Government redaction
that holds up.

Colorado now requires agencies to redact officials’ personal information from records posted online. Civic Scrub finds it, cites the statute, and burns it in — a clerk approves every mark. Built in Colorado, veteran-owned.

The clerk’s review desk.

Vero does the finding and cites the statute. Your clerk approves each mark on one screen — then it’s burned in and sealed, with every decision logged. This is the workflow, end to end.

Why Civic Scrub

Defensible by
construction.

Built for CRS § 24-72. Every safeguard a Colorado agency needs to release records without releasing liability.

01

Burned, not blacked out.

Redactions are rasterized into the PDF, destroying the underlying text permanently. No overlay tricks that peel away.

02

An audit log of every decision.

Every detection, proposal, and clerk approval is recorded to a per-agency, append-only log — the chain-of-custody record a public-records defense needs.

03

A statute behind every mark.

Each proposed redaction cites the exact CRS section that authorizes withholding. No guesswork, no liability gaps.

See it work

From raw record to release-ready — in one pass.

Vero reads the document, flags every piece of protected information, and proposes a burn-in redaction with the statute that authorizes it. A clerk approves. The text underneath is gone for good.

The difference

Generic tools flag data.
We cite Colorado law.

National redaction tools tag information with one-size-fits-all reason codes and call it done. Civic Scrub is built on the statutes your records actually live under — so every withholding is defensible the day a requester, a reporter, or an auditor asks why.
