EXIF Data Viewer processes all images entirely within your browser. When you analyze an image's EXIF data:

  • The image is processed locally on your device
  • No image data is sent to any external server
  • EXIF metadata extracted from images is not collected or stored by us

3. Data We Do NOT Collect

When you click to view GPS coordinates on a map, you will be redirected to Google Maps. Your interaction with Google Maps is subject to Google's Privacy Policy. We do not share any additional data with Google beyond the coordinates you choose to view.

We may use third-party analytics services to collect anonymous usage data. These services have their own privacy policies governing the use of your information.

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information. However, no method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

EXIF Data Viewer is intended for users aged 18 and older. We do not knowingly collect information from children under 13 (or 16 under GDPR). If we become aware that we have collected data from a child, we will take steps to delete it promptly.

10. Your Rights

You have the right to access, correct, or delete your personal data. You can unsubscribe from our emails at any time using the link in any email we send. For users in the EEA, you may have additional rights under GDPR. Please contact us with any requests.
