 **Email:** Added support for choosing the SMTP authorization method. You can change it via ``Config\Email::$SMTPAuthMethod`` option.
 **Image:** The ``ImageMagickHandler`` has been rewritten to rely solely on the PHP ``imagick`` extension.
+**Image:** Added ``ImageMagickHandler::clearMetadata()`` method to remove image metadata for privacy protection.

 - ``fontPath``        The full server path to the TTF font you wish to use. System font will be used if none is given.
 - ``fontSize``        The font size to use. When using the GD handler with the system font, valid values are between ``1`` to ``5``.

+Clearing Image Metadata
+=======================
+
+This method removes metadata (EXIF, XMP, ICC, IPTC, comments, etc.) from an image.
+
+.. important:: The GD image library automatically strips all metadata during processing,
+        so this method has no additional effect when using the GD handler.
+        This behavior is built into GD itself and cannot be modified.
+
+Some essential technical metadata (dimensions, color depth) will be regenerated during save operations
+as they're required for image display. However, all privacy-sensitive information such as GPS location,
+camera details, and timestamps will be completely removed.
