Photo location privacy checker
Check whether a photo leaks GPS EXIF metadata, capture time, altitude, or camera-direction clues before you share it. The analysis runs locally in your browser.
What it checks
- GPS latitude and longitude if the file stores them.
- Altitude and camera direction when those extra tags are present.
- Capture time and date, which can still be revealing even without GPS.
- Basic device clues like make and model.
- A practical risk summary instead of a raw metadata dump only.

Common questions
Does removing visible landmarks from a photo make it safe to share?
Not necessarily. A plain-looking image can still carry GPS EXIF metadata, capture time, altitude, and device details that reveal where it was taken even if the scene itself looks anonymous.
Does this checker upload my image to the server?
No. The analysis runs locally in your browser so the file stays on your device while the page reads the image bytes and any supported EXIF tags.
Why does GPS plus camera direction matter more than a single coordinate?
A coordinate already narrows the location sharply. If the file also stores altitude or the direction the camera was pointing, that can make the real-world viewpoint easier to reconstruct.
