Question 1

Does Nginx Access Log Redactor upload my access.log or error.log to any server?

Accepted Answer

No. Every byte of your Nginx log is parsed and scrubbed 100% locally inside your browser's RAM. Zero network requests are made.

Question 2

Why is this safer than running a quick awk or sed one-liner on access.log?

Accepted Answer

Naive awk column replacement breaks whenever X-Forwarded-For or User-Agent strings contain spaces, and flat sed misses JWTs inside JSON logs or Referer headers.

Question 3

Can I still correlate requests from the same IP address after anonymization?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Our deterministic subnet pseudonymizer maps each distinct IPv4/IPv6 address to a consistent salted token within your session so you can debug DDoS or rate-limiting patterns.

Question 4

Does it support both Nginx Combined format and JSON log_format?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The local parser automatically detects standard CLF/Combined access logs, Nginx error.log lines, and JSON-structured access logs.

Question 5

Will this resolve GitHub GH013 Push Protection and gitleaks blocks on log fixtures?

Accepted Answer

Yes. It strips Bearer tokens, eyJ... JWTs, api_key query parameters, and Basic Auth credentials that trigger GH013 and gitleaks.

Question 6

What is included in the €3.99 24h Pass vs. the $19.00 Lifetime PRO Studio?

Accepted Answer

The €3.99 pass unlocks 24 hours of 100% unblurred batch exports, while the $19 buyout includes lifetime access plus the standalone offline HTML5 PRO workstation.
