Privacy and Sharing: Safety Basics

Maps can reveal more than you think. Use these simple practices to share safely.

Before you share

• Remove home addresses or sensitive places
• Check marker descriptions for private details
• Use unlisted links (share only with intended viewers)

After you share

If you regret sharing, revoke the link and generate a new one for the correct audience.

FAQ
