Clean every upload, on every site.
Choose a photo, a Word file or a PDF on any website and the extension removes its metadata before the site sees it. The cleaning happens inside your browser, as it does on this site.
Install
Edge and Brave install from the Chrome Web Store too. Or build it from the source.
Free, no account
- Cleans JPEG, PNG, HEIC, WebP, MP4, MOV, M4A, MP3, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OpenDocument and PDF files the moment you choose or drop them into an upload, on every site. In Chrome, pasted files too.
- The toolbar button shows how many files were cleaned on this tab and today, and pauses cleaning for the site you are on.
- Drop one file on the toolbar panel to clean it and download the copy.
Cleaning a single file is never behind a paywall, here or in the extension.
With Pro, Team or API
- Your saved policy (the kinds of field you keep) applies to every upload. On Team, the owner's policy applies to everyone.
- Rules per site: always clean, never clean, or ask first.
- Right-click an image and choose "Save without metadata".
- A log of your last 100 cleans: site, file name and fields removed. It stays in the extension and is never sent anywhere.
To connect it, open your account, create a connection token and paste it into the extension's options.
What it asks for
| Read and change all sites | To see when you choose a file for upload and swap in the clean copy. It reads nothing else on the page. |
|---|---|
| Storage | Your counts, paused sites, rules, the log and the connection token, kept in your browser. |
| Context menus | The "Save without metadata" item on images. |
| Downloads | To save the clean copy of an image you right-clicked. |
| filesanity.com | Only when connected: one request that asks for your plan and policy. No file, file name or site is sent. |
What it does not do
It does not clean uploads a site builds in its own code without a file picker or a drop. Compressed metadata inside some PDFs is kept, as on this site. The source is in the open-source repository.
