Fast workflow
Designed to reduce friction with direct upload, quick processing, and one-click export.
Open Metadata Sanitizer, add your file, then choose the target output and run conversion.
This tool is optimized for security utilities and works best with * as inputs.
When processing completes, download the result in * and verify quality before sharing.
Metadata Sanitizer is a privacy-first utility for fast security utilities. It helps you move from * to * with consistent output quality.
Designed to reduce friction with direct upload, quick processing, and one-click export.
Files are handled in an isolated processing flow with minimal retention and clear user controls.
Outputs are tuned for real use cases across *.
A predictable sequence keeps conversion stable across devices and file sizes.
Metadata Sanitizer accepts * and exports *.
The pipeline is designed for privacy-first processing with clear user control over inputs and outputs.
Use high-quality source files, choose the closest matching target format, and avoid repeated reconversion cycles.
Metadata Sanitizer follows a deterministic conversion flow so results are repeatable and easier to troubleshoot when a file behaves unexpectedly.
Strip EXIF/GPS and other metadata from images by re-encoding locally. 100% private.
All processing happens in your browser using the Canvas API. No image data is uploaded to any server. The re-encoding process creates a brand-new image file with zero metadata remnants.
Re-encodes images through an HTML5 canvas element, which naturally drops all embedded metadata including EXIF data, GPS coordinates, camera make/model, timestamps, software version tags, ICC color profiles, and thumbnail data. The output is a fresh image file with no traces of the original metadata. Supports PNG (lossless), JPEG (lossy), and WebP (modern compression) output formats.
Before sharing photos publicly on social media, uploading to dating sites or forums, submitting images for competitions, posting on marketplace listings, or any situation where you want to prevent others from seeing where or when a photo was taken.
