This seems like a basic fix, but have not been able to find the solution. I use Photoshop CC on MacBook and suddenly "export as" has begun to erase file metadata. I see a place in the tutorials to choose which data to export, but that is missing on mine (and the "export options" link you see in the image takes me to a tutorial that says choose the nonexistent meta options). Does anyone have an idea for a solution? Thank you!
I don't think that option was there in 2015. You should update to a newer version of PS.

What exact version of photoshop cc do you have?
You can find the this out by going to Help>System Info in photoshop and the top line is the Adobe Photoshop Version.
Since Export As has been a work in progress, earlier versions didn't have all the latest functions like the Metadata options.

Chuck and Jeff, that was it. I updated my OS (was still on Yosemite yikes.) Then downloaded Photoshop CC 2018. The contact and copyright option for export is there now.

You can also use the Legacy Save for Web where you do have control over the metadata.

Thanks, gener7. That is what I was doing.
