Does ConvertFT just hide metadata or physically strip it?

Many editors only "nullify" tags, which can sometimes be recovered. ConvertFT’s C++ backend engine performs a binary-level physical strip. We reconstruct the image bitstream while completely omitting the APP1 (EXIF), APP2 (ICC), and XMP segments based on your choice. Once processed, the metadata is irrecoverably destroyed, ensuring your privacy is hard-coded into the file.

Why is removing EXIF critical for Image SEO and Web Performance?

Beyond privacy, EXIF data can add up to 10KB - 50KB of "hidden weight" to every image. For high-traffic websites using WebP or AVIF, this metadata overhead increases the Time to First Byte (TTFB). By stripping unnecessary metadata with ConvertFT, you reduce the payload for search engine crawlers, potentially improving your page loading speed and SEO ranking.

Will stripping EXIF data change the colors of my photos?

Standard tools often accidentally remove the ICC Color Profile along with the EXIF, causing images to look "washed out" on professional screens. ConvertFT is color-space aware: our tool allows you to strip sensitive privacy data (like GPS and Serial Numbers) while selectively preserving the ICC Profile, ensuring your grayscale or color images maintain visual consistency across all devices.

Can I batch-remove EXIF from iPhone HEIC and Next-Gen AVIF files?

Yes. While browser-based tools often struggle with modern compressed formats, our server-side architecture fully supports advanced metadata extraction for HEIC, AVIF, and WebP. You can upload an unlimited batch of mixed formats, and we will clean them all in one click—perfect for social media managers and professional photographers.

How does the "Immediate Clear" feature enhance my data security?

We follow a Zero-Retention Security Protocol. While most tools keep files for 24 hours, ConvertFT gives you an "Immediate Clear" option on the download page. This triggers a server-side command to perform a secure wipe of your images from our temporary cache (Redis) instantly, ensuring that your data only exists long enough for the conversion.

How do I remove GPS tracking and location data from my photos?

Simply upload your photos to ConvertFT. Our tool instantly wipes latitude, longitude, and altitude smart-tags embedded by iPhones or Android devices. By clearing this GPS data before publishing, you prevent strangers from tracing the exact location of your home or family.

Will removing EXIF data affect the image quality?

No, removing EXIF data does not affect the image quality. EXIF data is stored in the image header and does not require decoding of the image itself. Removing this information will not alter the visual quality of the image.

STRIP EXIF

strip exif

Strip EXIF removes hidden metadata from your photos. EXIF data includes information like the camera model, date, time, and even the location where the photo was taken. While this data can be helpful, it may also contain personal details you don’t want to share. Stripping the EXIF data helps protect your privacy, reduces the file size, and ensures your images are ready for safe sharing. It’s a simple and effective way to clean up your photos!
