+When sharing files, be sure to remove associated metadata. Most common file types (including documents, images, and videos) include metadata. Image files, for example, commonly include [Exif](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exif) data. Photos sometimes even include GPS coordinates in the file metadata. Windows has a built-in metadata remover, but it has a [very limited number](https://digitalconfidence.com/Remove-Properties-and-Personal-Information-a-Misleading-Feature.html) of supported file types and metadata types, necessitating a reliable third-party tool.
