It is possible to remove your private information before uploading the file. For example, in Find & Replace, make sure 'Regular expressions' are enabled and ask it to replace all '[a-z]' by 'x'. All of the lowercase letters will be replaced by 'x'. You can also replace '[A-Z]' and '[0-9]' if you want. Make sure the problem still occurs after doing it. - Robert
