Where does 1Password store my passwords?

Question

By default, all your 1Password data is stored locally on your devices. If you choose to use the iCloud or Dropbox sync option in 1Password, then an encrypted copy of your data is stored in your iCloud or Dropbox account, but your master password isn't stored anywhere at all (except in your head).

Does 1Password store my password?

Your account password is never stored alongside your 1Password data or transmitted over the network. Taking this precaution is a bit like making sure the key to a safe isn't kept right next to it: Keeping the two separate makes everything more secure.

Is 1Password stored locally?

1Password always works from a local copy of your data. Data you enter is encrypted before it is saved into this local database. The database is stored on your computer, and syncs when you are online. This means you can access your data while you're offline (or in the event that we are offline).

Is 1Password stored in the cloud?

1Password is a cloud-based password management app designed to store all of your login information, credit card data, and other critical info in one secure location, making it super easy to access your data from any location and on any device.
