About ExifStrip

ExifStrip exists for one reason: sharing a photo shouldn't mean sharing where you live. Every photo you take carries embedded metadata — GPS coordinates, timestamps, device details — and most online tools silently upload the whole file to a server to process it.

Every tool on this site runs 100% in your browser. Files are processed by JavaScript and WebAssembly on your own device. There is no upload endpoint, no analytics on your files, no account. You can verify this yourself: open your browser's developer tools, watch the Network tab, and process a photo — zero requests are made.

How it's built

Static site (Astro) hosted on Cloudflare Pages. The EXIF stripper is ~100 lines of plain JavaScript that parses JPEG/PNG structure. The HEIC decoder is libheif compiled to WebAssembly. Because there is no backend, there is nothing to hack, nothing to subpoena, and nothing to leak.
