 * Hi
 * Is there any way to retain the EXIF data of optimised images? I’m a photographer
   and use it to insert copyright information, as well as it containing the usual
   camera and lens data and so on.
 * Thanks
    Simon

 * Hi Simon,
 * We understand the case for keeping EXIF data, but currently the API doesn’t have
   an option that allows you to specify that you want to keep the metadata. We will
   surely take it into consideration.
 * Thanks for the valuable feedback!

 * Thanks for letting me know, and hopefully it’s an option you can incorporate 
   in the future.
 * Cheers
