Welcome to Android Central!

How are you sharing them? Where are they posted, or which cloud service(s) are you using to host your photos?

If you're posting them to social media (Instagram, Snapchat, Facebook, Twitter, etc.), then you can't really protect them. They're on the internet, and anyone with an internet connection can access them.

If you're syncing photos to Google Photos or any other well-known cloud service, then your photos are safe - they can only be viewed by people with whom you choose to share them.

If you're truly worried about keeping your photos private, then I'd advise you not to share them on the internet at all.
