Your privacy is important to us. This policy explains how EXIF Scrub handles your data.

100% Local Processing

All photo processing happens entirely in your web browser using JavaScript. Your photos are never uploaded to any server. No data leaves your device at any point during the metadata removal process.

After cleaning, your processed files are temporarily held in your browser memory and automatically deleted after 5 minutes for your protection.

Data We Do NOT Collect

We do not collect, store, or transmit your photos, metadata, or any personal information. We have no servers that process your data. We cannot see your photos or their metadata at any time.

We do not use cookies to track you. We do not use analytics that send your data to third parties. We do not share any information with advertisers.

Cookies & Local Storage

This website does not set any cookies. We do not use local storage to persist any user data. All processing happens in temporary browser memory that is cleared when you close the page.

Third-Party Services

This website loads map tiles from OpenStreetMap only when your photo contains GPS coordinates and you choose to view the map. This request sends your approximate GPS coordinates to OpenStreetMap to display the map. You can use the tool without viewing the map.

No other third-party services are used. No tracking scripts, no advertising networks, no social media widgets.

Children's Privacy

This tool can be used by anyone, including children. Since we do not collect any personal data, there are no specific risks to children. Parents can safely allow their children to use this tool.
