Why this hub exists

Image delivery often needs both quality checks and privacy checks, because camera metadata can affect display orientation, licensing, and personal information exposure.
It helps users compare inspection, editing, auto-orientation, and metadata removal tools before publishing or archiving photo assets.
It gives one focused starting point for photographers, content teams, and developers preparing image files for websites, clients, or public downloads.
