What Metadata Can Contain

Photo metadata can include device model, capture date, software names, orientation data, and sometimes location details.

Browser-based tools can remove common metadata by decoding the visible pixels and exporting a fresh image file.

Store the original file locally if you need it, then share the cleaned export publicly.
