Be Mindful of Photo Metadata When Sharing

Remember

Before sharing photos online, especially on public platforms, be aware that they may contain hidden metadata (EXIF data) such as location, date, time, and device information. Consider stripping this metadata if it could compromise your privacy.

Why

Photo metadata can inadvertently reveal sensitive personal information. While some platforms automatically strip this data, not all do. Being mindful of what your photos might be sharing helps protect your privacy and security. A more thorough review or stripping of metadata can be done less frequently or as needed.
