About EXIF Data & Privacy
EXIF (Exchangeable Image File Format) is metadata embedded in photos by cameras and smartphones. It stores camera model, date and time, exposure settings, and — critically — GPS coordinates that reveal exactly where the photo was taken. Sharing photos with this metadata can unintentionally expose your location and personal habits.
Upload a JPEG image to view all embedded EXIF data, including camera details, GPS coordinates, and shooting settings. Choose to remove all metadata or selectively strip only GPS location data while keeping non-sensitive camera information. Download the cleaned image ready for safe sharing.
Removing EXIF data is important before posting photos on social media, sharing images in forums or marketplaces, publishing photos on blogs or websites, and sending images to people you do not fully trust. GPS metadata in particular can reveal your home address, workplace, and daily routines to anyone who examines the file.
EXIF data is stored in a structured binary format within JPEG file headers. It can contain over 100 different tags including GPS latitude and longitude with meter-level accuracy, camera serial numbers, lens information, and even thumbnail images. This tool uses the piexifjs library to read and strip metadata entirely in your browser — your photos never leave your device.
