What Can File Metadata Reveal?
Files contain more information than you think. Here's what our tool can detect before you send them.
Your Exact Location
Smartphone photos embed precise GPS coordinates, often accurate to within a few meters — revealing your home, workplace, or favorite spots.
Your Identity
PDFs and Word documents store the author's full name, company, and sometimes the Windows username or email address.
Your Device Details
Camera make, model, firmware version, and serial numbers can trace photos back to a specific device and person.
Your Work Patterns
Document metadata includes creation time, last edit time, total editing minutes, and number of revisions.
Your Software Stack
The exact application name and version is often recorded, and AI image tools may also leave creator-tool, model, or provenance markers behind.
Embedded Thumbnails
EXIF data can contain a thumbnail of the original photo, even if you've cropped sensitive content from the main image.
