How can I protect my iPhone privacy during repairs?

"the photos are deleted along with the rest of the data but i don’t know if they wont come back because the phone is still assigned to my apple iD, thats why i am asking, does icloud sync photos with an ereased iPhone?"

They'd be lost.

So, Export these form iCloud:

If you export your Photos, you can access them as desired. Mac: Export Photos, Videos, Slideshows, and Memories in Photos on Mac - Apple Support

I send my iPhone with broken screen to local repair shop and ereased data through FindMy, but is it possible to see my photos on it? Will they still be synced or do i have to delete it from my account? If yes, will it be deleted with the backup? What can i do to prevent repair shop employees to see my photos but still being able to restore iPhone with the backup? (They need acces to test the iPhone, thats why ereasing)

iPhone 12 mini on iOS 26 if its important

See what photos if you stated you deleted data using find my, wouldn't photos fall into data category?

The last time I had a screen replaced, I stood and watched the guy-- it was interesting to see.

It seems to me, if you're fully synced with iCloud, then you can just wipe the phone, and restore it when you get it back. That's what happens when you trade in for a new phone. Of course, I always have extra backups when I do that…
