Strip GPS, camera, and date. Keep the photo
Before we process, you see whether the file has GPS, a camera name, and a taken date. Those tags leave. The picture stays. Orientation is written into the pixels so the photo does not flip on the next site. strip GPS is the iPhone walkthrough.
We do not claim nobody on the machine can read the bytes while the files sit here. Original and result are deleted automatically after 24 hours.
How to remove EXIF

- If it says no GPS, we still write a clean file.
- Process. Download the clean file.
- Files are deleted automatically after 24 hours.
What we do not hide
Colour profile stays so colours do not shift. We do not wipe every rare TIFF tag.

Input
Output
The original contains EXIF; the output has no EXIF block. The decoded pixels are identical in this JPEG test. Removing metadata does not hide a location or name that is visible in the image itself.
Measurements apply to these files and settings, not to every upload. The engine version and processing environment can change the bytes. The public examples stay available; your uploads follow the 24-hour deletion policy.

Does the photo look different?
Pixels stay. GPS, camera model, and date leave. Orientation is written into the pixels. Convert HEIC first on HEIC to JPG if Windows will not open it.
Is this encryption?
No. HTTPS on the way in and out. The server must decode the image to rewrite it.
Screenshots?
Many have no GPS. You still get a clean file.
