Disabling GPS.

Is there a way to disable the GPS in the Pentax K3 II?

I have been through the menu and turned it off but it still records data in the EXIF info. When posting images on social media there is a prompt to tag the location which I don't want to do.

There is a button on the left side of the camera ( looking from the back) just below where the pop up flash would have been to turn it on and off.

Thank you very much.
