Are my files uploaded to check them?

No. Reading EXIF, hashing, and stripping metadata all happen in your browser, so the file never leaves your device. That is the point when the file is sensitive.

Does removing metadata change the image itself?

No. It removes the hidden data, like location, camera and timestamps, and leaves the picture untouched.

What is a checksum for?

It is a fingerprint of a file. If the hash you calculate matches the one the publisher lists, the file arrived intact and unmodified.

See what is hidden in a file, strip it out, and check a file is what it claims to be.

Files carry more than they show. A photo has GPS coordinates and a camera serial in its EXIF. A document has author names and edit history. The tools here let you see that metadata and remove it, check a file's hash against a checksum, edit subtitles, make a favicon, or find duplicates taking up space.

Every one of them runs in your browser. Since the point is often privacy, that matters: your file is read locally to inspect or clean it, and nothing is uploaded to a server.

Which tool for which job

View EXIF: See the location, camera and timestamp buried in a photo before you share it.
Remove metadata: Strip EXIF and hidden data out of a photo or document so it gives nothing away.
Hash and checksum: Confirm a download matches its published checksum, so you know it was not tampered with.
Subtitle editor: Fix timings or text in an SRT file without a heavy video editor.
Find duplicates: Spot identical files by content, not just name, to clear space.
