About Privacy & Security
Post one photo and your home location can leak; screenshot a meeting and someone else’s data can show. Digital files carry information we do not see behind the visible pixels.
Phone photos embed GPS coordinates, timestamp, and camera model as EXIF metadata. Most social apps strip EXIF automatically, but email attachments, blogs, and personal cloud shares keep it. JiniTools privacy tools erase this hidden data or hide what should not be seen.
Sharing an ID or contract scan makes redacting resident numbers and account numbers essential. Every tool here runs in your browser only, so you avoid the paradox of "uploading sensitive data to a site just to hide it."

FAQ
Is removing EXIF enough?
EXIF is hidden data, but if the photo itself shows clues (a sign, a license plate), redact those too with the mosaic tool.
Can a mosaic be reversed?
The mosaic averages the pixels, so recovery is effectively impossible. Still, keep a copy of the original.
Where should a watermark go?
A large semi-transparent mark across the diagonal center works best — corner marks are easy to crop out. Position and opacity are adjustable.
Can removed EXIF be recovered?
The new file has no EXIF. If you keep the original, it still contains EXIF — share the new file.
