Is there a way to mask data on forms submitted from our websites?
Context- we are a health insurance service provider and occassionally, visitors to our sites looking for support or coverage will submit a request form and include PII as part of the request. With Hubspot not being HIPAA compliant, I am wondering if there is a way to mask this type of data in order to prevent it being stored in Hubspot.
Ah! My apologies. I know HubSpot forms will stop you using specific PII questions for your field names, for example creating a form field for "Social security number".
It doesn't automatically filter submissions though, so there's no way to automatically omit PII if it is submit in a form submission, the only way to have that data scrubbed from HubSpot would be to contact support and request they delete it.

Thank you for your response. I think that you are not understanding my question. We do not currently or do we seek to store PII in Hubspot. However, when a visitor completes a form request for more information on our websites (hosted in Hubspot CMS), they might include PII in their submission despite our warning/disclaimer reminding them to not include this type of information. My question is whether Hubspot is able to detect that type of data and mask it or even remove it in order to avoid having it be stored in Hubspot (and avoid the compliance risk).

Masking PII on Forms
SOLVE
Hey @THellebuyck11 it's actually against hubspot's TOS to store PII info on their CRM. While it is a secure platform, PII takes a few extra layers of delicacy with how they are handled and who they're visible to. HubSpot is not the place to store that info, if anyone has submit PII on a HS form you can contact hubspot to ask for it to be deleted, but if you wish to store and handle this you should look into a dedicated, encrypted system which could integrate with hubspot if you need it!
