## What is PuryFile?

Clean files before you share them.

Keep your private identity separate from the files you send.

PuryFile helps you remove supported hidden details from photos, documents, spreadsheets, audio, and videos before sending or uploading them — even when different file types are mixed together in one batch.

Files can contain information you may not want to share, such as location data, author names, device details, app information, timestamps, document properties, and other privacy-sensitive metadata.

PuryFile creates clean copies for sharing while keeping your original files unchanged.
