Photo processing
Your selected photo is read and changed locally in the browser. It is not uploaded to removegps.com. We do not receive, store, or log the photo or its metadata.
JPEG scanning covers Exif and XMP GPS. HEIC scanning covers Exif GPS, XMP GPS, and Apple ISO 6709 location fields. The download is created in temporary browser memory. Closing or reloading the page clears that working copy; your original file is never overwritten.
Map preview
If readable coordinates are found, the page can load map tiles from OpenStreetMap to show the location. That map request is separate from the photo: the photo itself is never sent. OpenStreetMap may receive ordinary request information such as an IP address and the requested map area. To avoid that request, disconnect from the network before choosing a photo; metadata removal still works locally.
Accounts, analytics, and advertising
No account is required. Photo processing does not create server logs of your file or its metadata.
This site uses Google AdSense to show ads. Google may use cookies or similar technologies to serve ads based on visits to this site and other sites. Ads are unrelated to your photo: the image is not uploaded and is not used to personalize advertising. For details see Google’s advertising policy. You can opt out of personalized ads at Google Ads Settings.
