How to check location-sharing settings on accounts, apps, and devices.
Short answer
Check location sharing in your device, major accounts, maps, social apps, and family-sharing services. Remove access you do not recognise and secure the account if someone else may have access.
Check your device's location permissions and identify which apps can access your location.
Review location-sharing features in maps, social networks, family services, and other accounts.
Check active sessions and connected devices if you believe another person may have access.
If the location exposure appears connected to account compromise or stalking, preserve evidence and secure the relevant accounts.

If your personal information has been exposed, work out exactly what information was shared, secure affected accounts, watch for suspicious activity and avoid giving the same information to anyone who contacts you unexpectedly.
If you see activity you don't recognise, secure the affected account directly, change the password, enable MFA, review recent activity and linked devices, and contact the provider if necessary.
