Photo Privacy Checker
Check a photo for common metadata that may expose information before you share it. The scan runs locally in your browser and does not assign a misleading privacy score.

Location and time
GPS coordinates and exact capture timestamps can reveal where and when a photo was taken.
People and equipment
Author, copyright and camera or lens serial fields may contain persistent identifiers.
Device history
Camera make, model, editing software, image IDs and comments can disclose extra context.
How to read the result
Attention recommended
At least one common privacy-sensitive metadata category was found. Review each detected field.
No common privacy-sensitive metadata found
The checked fields were readable and none of the common categories were found.
Limited metadata available
The browser could not read enough metadata for a complete common-field check. This is not proof that the file is private.
Metadata checks do not guarantee anonymity
This tool checks metadata, not everything visible in the image. Faces, addresses, documents, screens, license plates and recognizable landmarks can reveal private information through the pixels even when metadata is absent.
Review the image itself before sharing it. You can also use the EXIF Viewer for a broader local metadata inspection or the Metadata Remover to create a cleaned JPEG copy.
