Prevent digital fingerprinting
Your metadata can be used to create a digital fingerprint of your online activity, which can, in turn, be used to trace where a file originated, who created it, and more. By stripping your files of this metadata, you make it more challenging for threat actors to track your digital footprint.
No file altering
All we do is strip your files of their metadata for increased privacy; the photos, videos, or content are left unaltered. We don’t compress your files, leave watermarks, or make any other alterations except those that need to be removed, so you're left with a private, unaltered file.
When to use a metadata remover?
Maintaining your privacy online has become an essential aspect of our internet lives. By keeping the metadata of your documents, photos, or videos, you can maintain confidentiality in both your personal and business life, prevent data leaks, and enjoy increased privacy and anonymity.
Protect data in photos or videos
Photos taken with your phone or camera can include hidden location data, like GPS coordinates, place names, or even the direction your camera was facing. A photo metadata remover deletes location data to help you keep your home, workplace, or current whereabouts private and prevents cyberthreats like doxxing.
Avoid data leaks
Your full name, email, device, and software details can become embedded in your images, documents, or videos. An image or video metadata remover protects you even if you share these files with the wrong person there is no sensitive or private information being shared.
Send anonymous submissions
There are many use cases for a metadata remover online beyond photos and videos. Journalists or whistleblowers who need maximum privacy will use this tool to anonymize data linked to document authorship, revision history, thumbnail previews, and internal file paths.
Share files between employees
Businesses are a constant target for data breaches, which can occur due to cyberattacks, or human error. When sharing documents within departments, metadata could expose employee names, internal file structures, or comments. In this case, a metadata remover ensures a company's integrity and compliance.

Questions? We have answers
Metadata describes the files, device details, location, author, editing history, and more.
You should delete this information using a video, photo, or image metadata remover to prevent external bodies from gaining access to personalised information about you that you would rather keep private.
Basically, all files you create online. Word, Excel, PDFs, videos, images, etc, all have metadata in some form or another.
The kind of metadata these files contain will vary depending on their contents, so if you have a file you want to keep private, using a metadata cleaner will delete this information for you.
With Internxt’s metadata remover, yes. Files are encrypted, processed securely, and everything is deleted once the metadata is removed. We cannot store or view the contents of your files, only delete the metadata.
No, only the metadata is deleted. We don’t add watermarks, compress your files, or make any other unnecessary changes to your files. Once you delete the metadata, you will get the exact same version of your files with zero alterations.
Once you upload and delete the data, everything is automatically deleted from our system to maintain your privacy and our GDPR compliance.
All files contain metadata. In Windows, you can view it by right-clicking on the file and selecting “Properties”
Mac users again need to right-click the file, select “Get Info”, then go to the “Details” section to view the metadata.
Finally, you can view the metadata of PDFs by opening them in Adobe Acrobat and going to “File” > “Properties” > “Description”
