Remove Metadata (EXIF)

## Why You Should Strip EXIF Data Every photo you take with a smartphone or digital camera contains hidden information. While useful for organizing, this data can pose a significant privacy risk when shared on social media or public forums. ### Hidden Risks in Your Photos: 1. **Precise Location:** GPS coordinates can reveal your home address or current location. 2. **Device Identity:** Camera serial numbers and phone models can be used for tracking. 3. **Timeline Tracing:** Exact timestamps reveal your daily habits and schedules. ### How Our Browser-Based Stripper Works Shrinkify uses local processing to ensure your sensitive photos never leave your device. When you "strip" an image, our tool: - Reads the image file as a raw buffer. - Identifies and removes the EXIF, IPTC, and XMP metadata blocks. - Re-encodes a clean version of the image for download. By doing this entirely in your browser, we provide a level of security that cloud-based strippers simply cannot match. Your privacy is protected by the boundary of your own machine.
