File protection: anonymous, open source and fast

For the past few weeks, I've been working on a new version of my privacy site, which allows you to remove metadata from your files. This version is faster, more secure, and more anonymous: logins are now made with anonymous IDs, without collecting personal information.

The site supports more file types than before and remains largely open source. Everything is processed server-side and immediately returned to the user, without backup. Files are managed only in temporary variables and deleted at the end of the process.

The goal remains the same: to protect your privacy. Many people are unaware that shared files often contain sensitive information:

Photos → GPS location, date, device model

Documents → author's name, edit history, comments

This data can be used for tracking, OSINT, to feed AI, or even for identity theft.

In the future, I plan to add:

A lightweight API to automate certain tasks

New privacy-related tools

Lots of educational content

If you like the idea, feel free to test the site. I just uploaded the new version; there are probably some bugs. I don't know many thing about open source, so if someone want to help me to understand that would be kind. (:

    Does it remove the title from the docs/pdf? I've seen a lot of "Document 7" or "First Draft 2007".

      No it only removes metadata...

        It may be useful to show it and give that option to the users.

          I will try to implement it (:

            It's obviously not mandatory. It's just a geature request, that I think would be useful.
