You need to intentionally disable the sharing function in the Gboard app's Settings menu
.
Google's Gboard keyboard has a really extensive number of enhancement features, but so do a lot of other third-party keyboard apps. So you have a lot of alternatives to choose from that have their own pluses and minuses, with a significant minus to the Gboard keyboard being the data mining aspect. You need to specifically disable that so be sure to go into those Clipboard and Advanced submenus. And it's worth going through all the other menu options to customize and optimize how the keyboard works to your suit your own needs.
