There is a red link in [[Policy:Privacy policy/Frequently asked questions#There is outdated or inaccurate information about me in a Wikipedia article! How do I update my information?|this section]], please change it to correct link to Privacy policy, thanks.

When I uploaded some photos taken using my smartphone I didn’t realise that the wikiMedia website would display all the EXIF metadata from the camera. Please can you add a privacy feature to the user account to hide camera make and model information for my contributions [[User:Adrian816|Adrian816]] ([[User talk:Adrian816|talk]]) 14:23, 27 February 2018 (UTC) |

:I think that's a technical question about removal of the EXIF metadata from your existing uploads, and about removing EXIF during your future uploads. Perhaps ask [[:Commons:Village pump]]?<!-- ([[:c:Commons_talk:Exif#Privacy|related discussion]], [[:c:Commons:Village_pump/Archive/2005/06#EXIF|related discussion 2]], [[:c:Commons:Village_pump/Archive/2016/06#Is_there_a_tool_for_making_edits_to_EXIF_data_available_on_Commons?|Is there a tool for making edits to EXIF data available on Commons?]])--> --[[User:Gryllida|Gryllida]] 22:30, 27 February 2018 (UTC) |

::If your photo is displayed somewhere and you download it from there, the downloaded file has no EXIF metadata. The problem though is that without the metadata, there is no evidence that you're the photographer.

There seems to be a wide push for USA companies to apply the standards of the GDPR worldwide, for all users: https://uk.reuters.com/article/uk-facebook-ceo-privacy-exclusive/exclusive-facebook-ceo-stops-short-of-extending-european-privacy-globally-idUKKCN1HA2MN |
