  2. Select Citizens to Anonymize
    • You can choose to anonymize all citizens or select specific ones. if you only want to anonymize one citizen, check the box next to his/her name and click "Anonymize" in the top right corner.
  3. Request Anonymization
    • Once you request to anonymize a citizen, their name and contact details will be hidden from all non-administrator users.
  4. Confirm Anonymization
    • As an administrator, you will still have an overview of the citizens. However, you will now see that the citizen has been anonymized by the hidden eye-symbol next to the citizen's name.
