Photo Privacy Check

Check a photo for GPS metadata, QR codes and selected types of personal information found by OCR. Review the findings and the image before sharing.

What it checks

GPS capture location

Phones record latitude and longitude by default. One photo can expose your home; several can map out your routine. Detected coordinates open straight on a map.

ID and card numbers

Finds identity and card numbers in the image, verified with checksum and Luhn algorithms so invoice and tracking numbers are not flagged. Always shown masked.

Phone numbers and emails

Chat screenshots, business cards and delivery labels carry contact details you rarely notice yourself.

QR code contents

A QR code is a black box to the human eye. It may be a payment code, a contact card or a shared location — this decodes it and tells you.

Camera serial and author

EXIF can carry a body serial number, author name and copyright, which link separate photos back to the same person.

How to use it

1

Add a photo

Drag it in, click to choose, or just paste a fresh screenshot with Ctrl+V.

2

Wait for the scan

Metadata, then QR codes, then text recognition. Reading text takes a few seconds and shows progress.

3

Read the report

Findings are grouped high, medium and low. GPS coordinates link out to a map so you can confirm the spot.

4

Fix what matters

Jump to the metadata remover to strip EXIF, or to the redaction tool to cover what is visible in frame.

Easy things to miss

Blurring is not deleting

Published research shows neural networks recover faces from mosaiced photos far above chance, and tools exist that reconstruct pixelated text character by character. Use a solid fill to actually hide something.

Stripping GPS does not hide the location

Street signs, house numbers and delivery labels in frame locate you just as well — only redaction fixes those.

Screenshots usually carry no EXIF

Screenshots and images re-saved by messaging apps are typically stripped already, so the risk sits in what is visible.

Handwriting may be missed

Text recognition is strongest on printed type. Handwriting, script fonts and heavy distortion can slip through.

Never judge a QR code by its pattern

Two near-identical codes can hold completely different data. Decode before you share.

Re-check after fixing

Run the cleaned file through again and confirm the report is empty before posting.

Frequently asked questions

No. Metadata parsing, text recognition and QR decoding all run in your browser, and the file stays on your device. You can disconnect from the network and run it again to confirm.
By default, yes. With location access granted to the camera, iPhones and most Android phones write the capture coordinates into the photo EXIF. You can turn it off in camera settings, but photos already taken need clearing separately.
Screenshots, images re-saved by messaging apps and files compressed by most social platforms usually have their metadata stripped. The risk then lives in what is visible in frame.
Use this tool for free without an account. File and batch limits are shown in the tool.
We verify the ID check digit and confirm the birth date is a real date, and validate card numbers with Luhn. Invoice numbers, tracking numbers and product codes are almost never flagged.
Detected IDs and card numbers are masked to the first and last digits. A report that printed them in full would just be another place the number leaks.
Printed text is the most reliable. Handwriting, decorative fonts, heavy distortion or very low resolution can be missed. Treat it as a safety net, not a replacement for looking yourself.
The recognition engine downloads a language pack of a few megabytes on first use. Later runs are served from your browser cache.
JPG, PNG, WebP and BMP. JPG is the most likely to carry EXIF, though PNG and WebP can carry metadata too.
Strip metadata with the EXIF remover, and cover anything visible with the redaction tool — prefer solid fill over mosaic. Both are linked directly under the report.
One at a time for now. For a large archive, spot-check a few files to understand the pattern, then process the batch accordingly.
