What is metadata?
Metadata is information stored about a file, such as a PDF author, photo camera model, GPS coordinates, creation dates or software details. It is separate from much of the visible content.
Can I remove metadata from a PDF online without uploading it?
BeOutMeta's PDF metadata remover is designed to rewrite supported PDFs in the browser, so the core cleaning operation does not require an application-server upload.
Does metadata removal make a document anonymous?
No. Visible names, images, annotations, file names and other content may still identify people or organizations. Metadata cleanup is only one privacy step.
