Anonymize a photo

Safe by design

Anonymize surgically removes personal/location tags (GPS, device serials, author, thumbnails) but preserves the colour profile and bakes in orientation, so the photo still looks right.

Better than “clear all”

A blunt strip can drop the ICC profile or orientation and visibly change a photo. Anonymize targets only the privacy-sensitive fields.

Frequently asked questions

What's the difference from “remove metadata”?

Anonymize is the privacy-safe option: it removes location/personal tags but keeps rendering-critical bits (colour profile, orientation). Strip removes all descriptive metadata.

Does it remove GPS location?

Yes — GPS coordinates, along with camera serials, owner/author names, software and embedded thumbnails, are removed. The visible image is unchanged.

Is it free?

Yes, and no account is needed. Anonymous uploads are temporary and encrypted in transit.
