Privacy and limitations

Your file is processed in this browser tab. Do not assume that deleting metadata removes visible watermarks, server-side copies, or all possible identifying information. Image conversions re-encode pixels and may change visual quality. Inspect your downloaded output before sharing. If any extension or conversion format is unsupported, the tool reports it instead of silently uploading your file.
