Scrub JPEG Data - Remove EXIF Metadata

Securely remove hidden EXIF metadata from your JPEG images. This free tool cleans your photos of GPS location, camera details, and timestamps directly in your browser.

What is JPEG Metadata (EXIF)?

JPEG images use the EXIF (Exchangeable Image File Format) standard to store extra information within the image file. While invisible to the naked eye, this data is easily readable by any computer or smartphone.

What's Hidden in a JPEG?

  • Geolocation: Latitude, longitude, and altitude.
  • Camera Settings: ISO, f-stop, exposure time, focal length, and flash status.
  • Device Info: Camera serial number and lens model.
  • Timestamps: Original date/time, digitized date/time.
  • Orientation: How the camera was held (portrait/landscape).

Why Scrub JPEG Files?

1. Prevent Stalking and Doxing

Photos taken at home or school often contain GPS coordinates. If you upload these JPEGs to a blog, forum, or send them directly to someone, you might be revealing your exact address.

2. Clean "Edited" History

Some JPEGs store a history of software used to edit them (e.g., "Adobe Photoshop" or "Lightroom"). Scrubbing removes these traces.

3. Reduce File Bloat

While usually small, extensive metadata (especially embedded thumbnails) can add unnecessary kilobytes to your files.
