Clear Document & Photo Metadata Privately
Photos, videos, and PDFs carry more than their visible content — GPS coordinates, camera details, author names, and timestamps ride along quietly. Drop files below and Cleanroom removes what it can, entirely in your browser.
Why does this matter?
A photo's EXIF data can include the exact GPS coordinates of where it was taken, your camera or phone model, and the precise timestamp. PDFs often embed the author's name and the software used. Videos can carry the same GPS and device data as photos. None of this is visible when you look at the file — but it travels with it when you share, upload, or forward it, which is how home addresses and personal identifiers end up exposed without anyone meaning to share them.

What is file metadata and EXIF data?
Metadata is hidden information embedded inside your files automatically by devices like cameras, phones, and software. For photos, this includes "EXIF data," which can contain the exact GPS coordinates where the picture was taken, the device model, the exact time, and camera settings. For documents, it can reveal author names, edit histories, and creation dates.
