Securely remove image metadata online using our private, browser-based stripping tool. Permanently erase hidden photo properties—known as EXIF data—including GPS coordinates, camera serial numbers, and capture timestamps directly in your browser. Designed for privacy-conscious users, our tool ensures your sensitive information never leaves your device by processing files locally.
Why Remove Image Metadata?
Almost every photo you take with a smartphone or digital camera contains hidden information that can compromise your privacy. When you share photos on the web, you might unintentionally be sharing your exact home location or device details. Our tool helps you strip this data instantly.
What Data is Stripped?
When you use our metadata remover, we re-render your image data to ensure all non-visual headers are completely discarded. This includes:
- GPS Location: Remove precise latitude and longitude coordinates where the photo was taken.
- Camera Details: Strip the make, model, and serial number of your equipment.
- Exposure Settings: Erase technical metrics like ISO, aperture, and shutter speed.
- Software History: Remove traces of editing software like Photoshop or Lightroom. If you need to further process your image, try our Background Blur tool.
