JPEG · HEIC · TIFF · PNG · WEBPWhat this check can—and cannot—tell you
It reads metadata embedded in the file you selected. Many social networks strip metadata during upload, while originals shared through AirDrop, email, cloud drives, or messaging can retain it. “Safe” means no supported metadata was found in this file; it does not mean the visible image itself reveals nothing.
What metadata does this checker read?
It looks for supported EXIF, GPS, TIFF, XMP, and IPTC fields including coordinates, device or camera model, capture time, and editor software. It also flags common Content Credentials markers, but does not cryptographically validate a C2PA manifest.
How can the check stay private?
The selected file is read by JavaScript running in this browser tab. The image is not posted to NoTrace, and its filename, coordinates, preview, and metadata are never included in conversion events.
Original photo vs screenshot
Original camera files are more likely to contain GPS and device metadata. Screenshots and platform-compressed copies often contain less metadata, although the visible image itself can still reveal people, addresses, or landmarks.
