Remarks

"Metadata" refers to extra information that is stored with an image, but is not necessary for decoding the image.

Metadata can contain information about the camera used to take the image, the author, date and time the image was taken, where the image was taken, whether the camera has GPS capabilities, etc. When an image is modified, you should preserve the original information, if possible. Metadata includes markers, tags and comments.
