Your position stays private

Ayyam uses where you are only to find places near you. The post gets the place you pick, with the place’s own address, and nothing about where you were standing.

You don’t need to share your location to add one. Searching by name works either way. Without it, you just don’t see NEARBY, and the sheet says Turn on location to see places near you.
