Yes. On the **Panoramas** tab, pick the panorama and click **Blur faces or plates**, the button under **Replace Original File**. In the window, click **Draw an area** and drag a box over each face or number plate, or over anything else you want hidden, such as a house number or a neighbour's window (up to 50 at once), then click **Blur areas**. The same button is on the panorama's page in your library and on a Panoramr's page.

The blur is made into the panorama's own pictures, so every tour and Panoramr that shows it is blurred, about a minute after you confirm. A copy somebody downloaded earlier, a page still open in a browser, and a copy already sent to Google Street View are not changed. **Find faces** looks for faces for you only where our team has switched it on, and it never finds number plates: draw those yourself.

The owner of the panorama can take an area away later with **Take away**; a collaborator can blur but not take a blur away. [Blur faces and number plates in a panorama](https://www.panoramr.com/help/blur-faces-and-number-plates) has the details.
