What’s the easiest way to check image copyright status using metadata?

An easy way to check image copyright status is to look at its metadata, and possibly there is some metadata that will include the name of the creator, copyright holder and terms of use within its file. The metadata can be understood by using such tools as online metadata viewers or photo editors which provide a better vision of ownership according to Visuals Clipping. Nevertheless, in the event metadata is lost or stripped, additional checking and precautions are to be taken to prevent unauthorized usage.
