Whatever you write inside the meta tag in html will not be on the webpage. Metadata elements are information of the webpage that one may not see on the actual page. Example: You make a webpage and you don't want to have your name (author) somewhere visible on the page. You use the meta tags and your name is available only at the site information or the html code. Same applies for last modified dates to ease the we develloper's work.

Meta elements are typically used to specify page description, keywords, author of the document, last modified, and other metadata. The metadata can be used by browsers (how to display content or reload page), search engines (keywords), or other web services. Source: https://www.w3schools.com/tags/tag_meta.asp
