Deidentification: A process where personally identifiable information (PII) is removed or anonymized from a dataset. The aim is to protect the privacy of individuals by ensuring that the data cannot be traced back to them. This technique is often used in data analytics and research, where large volumes of data are needed, but the identification of specific individuals is not.
