In order to fix this issue I needed to read the EXIF data. Save it to a temporary object then after the bitmap is compressed I open the file and write the saved EXIF data.
Supports the following EXIF fields if they are set in your image:
APERTURE
DATETIME
EXPOSURE_TIME
FLASH
FOCAL_LENGTH
GPS_ALTITUDE
GPS_ALTITUDE_REF
GPS_DATESTAMP
GPS_LATITUDE
GPS_LATITUDE_REF
GPS_LONGITUDE
GPS_LONGITUDE_REF
GPS_PROCESSING_METHOD
GPS_TIMESTAMP
ISO
MAKE
MODEL
ORIENTATION
WHITE_BALANCE
