FAQ

About metadata

Do you upload my images?

No. Both the metadata inspection and the re-encoding run entirely in your browser.

What kinds of metadata are removed?

EXIF (camera, lens, GPS, timestamp), IPTC (caption/copyright) and XMP blocks are dropped by re-encoding the image. The visual content is identical to a viewer.

Does re-encoding lose quality?

Re-encoding is technically a re-save. With JPEG/WebP at the same quality (92% by default), any loss is negligible. For best fidelity, choose "Same as input" and only strip JPEG → JPEG.
