Metadata viewing is 100% client-side. For metadata removal, the image is uploaded to our server, stripped, and auto-deleted within 2 hours.
What Metadata Is Stored in Your Photos?
- Camera info — Make, model, serial number, lens model
- Shooting settings — Aperture, shutter speed, ISO, focal length, flash
- GPS location — Exact latitude and longitude where the photo was taken
- Date and time — When the photo was captured
- Software — Editing software used (Photoshop, Lightroom, etc.)
- Copyright — Author and copyright information
Why Remove Metadata?
- Privacy — GPS coordinates reveal your exact location. Removing metadata before sharing photos online protects your privacy.
- Security — Serial numbers and device info can be used for tracking.
- File size — Metadata can add several kilobytes to each image. Stripping it reduces file size.
- Clean uploads — E-commerce platforms, stock photo sites, and social media often strip metadata anyway. Do it yourself for consistency.
Frequently Asked Questions
No. Metadata viewing is 100% client-side — your image is read directly in your browser and never uploaded. Only the “Remove All Metadata” function uploads the image to our server for processing.
EXIF metadata viewing works best with JPEG files, as they contain the most metadata. PNG, WebP, and other formats may have limited metadata. The metadata remover works with all image formats.
No. Metadata removal only strips the embedded data (EXIF, IPTC, XMP). The actual image pixels remain untouched and quality is preserved.
