[NagoriMustakim]

we are creating an account in metamask so where our username and password are stored?
if in their database so definitely they can misuse our account

[DorianDaSilva]

@NagoriMustakim It is recommended you use a new metamask account or wallet for learning purposes.

of course, I am using a new account
but what about they can access my account (official account) ?
how can I trust them? privacy?

MetaMask is a self-custodial wallet, which means they cannot control access to user accounts, nor intervene and rescue your account or funds for you. So it is pretty safe.

It is actually not saved in their database.

Everything is stored on your browser or app (if using the phone)
