How Facebook checks image metadata
Facebook parses image file headers for C2PA manifests, IPTC digital source type markers, and XMP metadata fields indicating algorithmic generation.
Why false "Made with AI" labels occur
Using camera raw editors that embed metadata assertions or exporting from modern design suites can trigger automatic automated flags across Meta networks.
What clean.hexalab removes for Facebook
Removes C2PA manifests, IPTC markers, and optionally strips private camera serial numbers and GPS coordinates while keeping color profiles intact.
Compliance and disclosure policy
Where Facebook policy or applicable regional regulations mandate disclosure of photorealistic AI media, comply with disclosure rules.
