# Photo Privacy and Safety on CordLine

This article explains how CordLine protects location and identity in your photos and videos, and how its content screening works.

## Location data is removed automatically

Every photo and video you upload has its location data (GPS/EXIF information) stripped before it's stored — this happens automatically, on every upload, with nothing for you to turn on. A shared photo can't be used to figure out where you are.

## Editing tools for faces and sensitive details

CordLine's photo editor lets you blur or black out faces before you post — useful if a photo includes someone who shouldn't be identifiable, or if you serve somewhere that calls for extra caution about who appears in your updates.

## Content screening

CordLine screens uploaded **photos and videos** for inappropriate content automatically. Automatic screening is a safety net, not a guarantee, so the same judgment you'd use anywhere else still applies: review what you're sharing before you post it.

## Photo downloads

We don't currently have a way for a supporter to save a photo from a post directly within CordLine. If you want someone to have a copy of a photo, sharing it another way is the reliable option for now.

## Tips

- **Check the background, not just the subject.** A sign, a landmark, or a uniform in the frame can reveal more than a face does.
- **Use the editing tools before you post, not after** — review and blur anything sensitive as part of your normal posting routine.
- **When in doubt, leave it out.** A slightly less vivid update is worth it if a detail could put someone at risk.
