Image Metadata Remover

Image Metadata Remover re-exports images with EXIF, GPS, and camera tags stripped—reducing privacy leaks and slightly shrinking file size for web delivery.

Batch mode cleans entire folders before CMS upload so no single file slips through with coordinates embedded.

GDPR and school policies increasingly flag geotagged student and employee photos on public sites.

Stripping metadata is standard hygiene before sharing proof galleries or confidential facility photos externally.

• Sanitize team outing photos before intranet publish
• Remove GPS from real estate interior shots
• Prepare client deliverables with neutral metadata footprint
• Batch-clean blog image folders before static site deploy
• Strip EXIF before FOIA or public records releases

1. 1Upload images containing EXIF you want removed.
2. 2Confirm strip metadata is enabled—re-encoding happens locally.
3. 3Process batch and compare file sizes—small reductions are normal.
4. 4Spot-check with Image Metadata Viewer on one output file.
5. 5Download clean images individually or as ZIP.

• Combine with JPEG Compressor when both privacy and size matter.
• Keep original RAW or EXIF-rich masters in secure archives—not the public CDN copy.
• Alt text still matters after stripping—metadata removal is not accessibility.
• Image SEO Optimizer bundles compression and stripping in one pass when speed matters.

• Some proprietary XMP chunks may persist depending on export path—verify with viewer when stakes are high.
• Stripping does not blur faces or remove visible background landmarks in pixels.
• Common mistake — stripping then re-uploading through apps that re-add GPS: control the full publish chain.
