Terms of Use

The metadata viewer, remover, and related tools are offered free of charge and without warranty of any kind. We work to make them accurate, but we cannot guarantee that every tag is read or removed correctly for every file, camera, or format.

This matters most for the metadata remover. If you are stripping data for privacy or safety reasons, always verify the result by reopening the cleaned file in the viewer before you share it. Keep a copy of your originals; a strip operation cannot be undone.

Everything on this site is for general information about photo metadata. It is not legal, security, or professional advice and should not be relied on as such. Pages that touch on copyright, privacy law, or platform behaviour describe how things generally work — they are a starting point, not a ruling on your situation.

Copyright and privacy rules differ by country and change over time, and the behaviour of the phones, cameras, apps, and social platforms we describe can change without notice. For decisions with legal or financial consequences, consult a qualified professional in your jurisdiction.

We aim to keep the guides current and factually correct, but we do not promise that every page is complete or up to date at the moment you read it. If you spot an error, please tell us through the contact page — corrections are welcome and we act on them.

Use the tools only on photos you have the right to handle. Do not use the site to break the law, to infringe someone else's rights, or to attempt to disrupt, overload, or reverse-engineer the service. The site and its content are owned by Pond Software; you may read and share links to the guides, but you may not republish them as your own.

The site links to third-party tools, retailers, and resources, including affiliate links, and it shows third-party advertising. We are not responsible for the content, products, or practices of any third-party site.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Pond Software is not liable for any loss or damage arising from your use of, or inability to use, this site or its tools. Your use of the site is at your own risk.
