Hash Data by 8apps - Simple, Secure Hashing in Google Sheets™
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hash Data by 8apps helps you anonymise sensitive data like email addresses, phone numbers and other personally identifiable information (PII) - directly inside Google Sheets™.

Whether you're uploading audiences to Google Ads or Meta Ads, sharing datasets with partners, or simply safeguarding internal data, Hash Data keeps you compliant and secure with three simple functions:

=HASH( ) - Hash any type of data using MD5, SHA-1, SHA256, or SHA-512.

=HASHEMAIL( ) - Clean, normalise, and hash emails as per ad platform specs.

=HASHPHONE( ) - Format and hash phone numbers consistently and securely.

No scripts. No Coding. Just clean functions!


💡What You Can Do With Hash Data
----------------------------------------------------------
✔ Hash any data instantly - Use simple functions like =HASH(A2, "SHA256") to secure emails, phone numbers, or any sensitive fields.
✔ Use purpose-built functions - =HASHEMAIL( ) and =HASHPHONE( ) ensure data is cleaned and standardised before hashing.
         » HASHEMAIL( ) trims spaces and converts to lowercase.
         » HASHPHONE( ) formats numbers using the E.164 international standard before hashing.
✔ Stay platform-compliant - Compatible with Google Ads, Meta Ads, and other custom audience systems.
✔ No coding required - Designed for non-technical users, no scripts or apps needed.
✔ Choose your algorithm - Supports hashing algorithms including MD5, SHA256, SHA512, SHA1, or SHA3-256.
✔ Privacy by design - Data never leaves your spreadsheet. Everything runs client-side.
