Why a photo knows where it was taken
When the camera app may use your location, every photo gets the latitude, longitude and often the altitude and compass direction written into its EXIF data. Sent as a file - by email, a messenger "document", a cloud link or a marketplace listing - that position travels with it, accurate to a few metres.
Remove it before you share
- Drop the photos onto the box above.
- Photos with a location are flagged, with a link to check the position on a map.
- Download the cleaned copies - the image is untouched, only the metadata is gone.
How your files stay private
Most free converters upload your file, process it on their server and send the result back - so a copy of it passes through somebody else's machine. This page does all of the work in your browser instead. The files you choose are read into memory on your own device, processed there and handed back as a download; none of their contents is transmitted. You can switch off Wi-Fi after the page has loaded and it keeps working.
