Frequently asked questions

Quick answers about file privacy, processing modes, formats, and device support.

All embedded EXIF, IPTC, and XMP metadata is permanently deleted. This includes GPS coordinates (revealing your home or exact shooting location), camera make and model, lens serial numbers, date and timestamps, thumbnail caches, and software editing history.
No. Stripping metadata purely removes the auxiliary metadata header dictionaries. The visual pixel data remains crisp and intact.
No. Some cameras rely on an EXIF orientation flag rather than physically rotating pixels. Elixuvo first normalizes the pixel matrix to match the upright visual orientation before stripping the tags, so your image remains upright.
No. No metadata or file content is logged, collected, or retained. The file is sanitized in volatile memory and returned immediately.
