I've noticed that when my website appears in Safari's Frequently Visited Sites preview, it displays sensitive data from my site. Is there a way to customize the thumbnail or control what is displayed in the preview to prevent sensitive data from being shown?

For those not familiar, I am referring to this section. Frequently visited section

What I have tried so far.

1 - I tried this answer: Safari Top Sites Preview, but the answer is from 2012 and this method: window.navigator.loadPurpose don't even exist on Safari.

2 - I thought, maybe I could tell safari to don't include my website in the frequently visited. Unfortunately I couldn't find any method for a website developer to prevent their site from appearing in Safari's Frequently Visited Sites section. 

3 - My second thought was that if I can't hide it, at least we could modify the image on the preview. But there, I also couldn't find a direct way to customize the appearance of your website in Safari's Frequently Visited Sites preview.

From what I found out, Safari automatically generates these previews using a snapshot of your site, and there's no specific meta tag or method to modify this behavior directly.

Any suggestion about other approaches? I could take? my Website is a Single Page Application.

Thank you
