Many image formats support so called metadata which are shunks of information stored in the image file itself. This can include the digital camera model used to take the images, time and date the picture was taken or GPS information that tell anyone where the image was taken. Metadata takes up disk space, this can be a few bytes to Kilobytes per image which can accumulate to Megabytes easily.

it is not just the disk space, but also the risks for privacy. Another freewares of this kind are BatchPurifier LITE (http://www.digitalconfidence.com/downloads.html) and Exif Tag Remover (http://www.rlvision.com/exif/about.asp)
