About this tool
Review supported hidden location, identity, device, time, and description data before sharing, while keeping parser exclusions and re-encoding changes explicit.
- Checks PNG, JPEG, WebP, GIF, and AVIF signatures, browser decoding, 25 MB size, 16,384 px dimensions, and a 60-megapixel processing ceiling before drawing conclusions.
- Parses supported TIFF, EXIF, GPS, XMP, IPTC, user-comment, and ICC fields, groups review signals, and exports source-linked JSON evidence.
- Re-encodes to an explicit PNG or JPEG policy and verifies output MIME, signature, dimensions, and supported privacy metadata before enabling the verified download.
How to use Metadata Privacy
Load an image, inspect supported TIFF, EXIF, GPS, XMP, IPTC, user-comment, and ICC fields, then create a re-encoded copy when metadata removal is appropriate.
When this tool is useful
- Reviewing a photo before public sharing.
- Checking whether location or camera fields are present.
Practical tips
- Keep the original because re-encoding can change pixels and quality.
- Maker notes remain outside verification, and an ICC color profile may remain for rendering.
Examples you can test
Load an example, compare the result with the expected output, then replace it with your own input.
Check a phone photo
Example input
JPEG containing GPS and camera EXIF
Expected output
Flagged location fields and a re-encoded copy
Verify the exported file again before sharing.
Validation checklist
- Review every supported metadata group, including IPTC and user comments.
- Confirm the in-tool reparse found no supported privacy metadata.
- Compare visual quality and color with the original.
