Constant Location Tracking Icon Appearing in Safari Private Browsing - showing location has been shared?

I am wondering why is my location arrow (filled icon symbol) in safari constantly activating when I have set it location tracking to never?

Safari is constantly advertising my loctation.

Not nearly private as advertised???

Maybe it’s another OS security flaw that is being exploited, or an App running outside of its supposed privilege settings?

IPadPro M4 - Running iPadOS 26.5.

Safari location is set to never in privacy & security settings - so wondering why the location symbol is activated at the top right of my screen every time a navigate to a website, obviously compromising user privacy?
