Sanitizing Hidden Metadata and Protecting Photo Privacy

Protect your digital privacy by stripping hidden tracking metadata (EXIF) from your photos and automatically redacting sensitive information like credit card numbers or SSNs from images and documents.

How to Use

EXIF Metadata Stripper: Upload any photo to view its hidden metadata (GPS location, camera details, timestamps). Click 'Clean & Download' to safely remove all metadata without losing image quality.
Sensitive Data Redactor: Upload an image or PDF. Our tool uses optical character recognition to auto-detect emails, phone numbers, and IDs. You can also manually draw black boxes over confidential details before exporting.
Both tools process everything locally in your browser. Nothing is ever sent to a remote server.

Key Features & Benefits

GPS Data Removal: Stop accidentally sharing where you live. Our EXIF stripper removes exact latitude and longitude coordinates embedded in smartphone photos.
Auto-Redaction: Automatically scans and blacks out common PII (Personally Identifiable Information) so you don't have to manually blur them out.
Zero-Quality Loss (EXIF): When stripping metadata from JPEGs, the image pixels are not re-compressed, guaranteeing 100% of the original visual quality is preserved.
Total Privacy Guarantee: A true zero-trust architecture. Files are processed entirely by your local machine's CPU.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is EXIF data?

EXIF data is hidden information attached to digital photos by your camera or smartphone. It often includes the date, time, camera settings, and exact GPS location where the photo was taken.

Is the redaction permanent?

Yes. When you download a redacted image or PDF, the black boxes are permanently burned into the pixels, and the underlying text is completely destroyed.

Does it work offline?

Yes, once the website loads, you can disconnect from the internet and still use the privacy sanitizer because it relies on local browser technology.
