Is this true black-and-white or grayscale?

Grayscale (256 levels). Pure 1-bit black-and-white is a different effect; ask if you need that.

Are my images uploaded?

No. Filter applied via Canvas in your browser.

What about EXIF data?

EXIF is stripped during the canvas re-render. Use Image Metadata Viewer first if you need to preserve it.

About Convert Image to Grayscale

Image to Grayscale strips color from a JPG, PNG, or WebP photo. Slide between full color (0%) and pure grayscale (100%) to find the right amount of desaturation. Useful for editorial photography, design mockups, and creating consistent visual treatment across an album. Runs in your browser.
