1Password - About your 'Employee' vault
When you join the UW-Madison 1Password enterprise account, you get an Employee vault where you can store items that aren’t shared with anyone else in the team. You can store your UW-Madison related passwords, account details for tools you use, and more.
The Employee vault and your privacy
The Employee vault is part of your 1Password enterprise account and you should only store UW-Madison related passwords in it. The items in your Employee vault aren’t directly available to other team members, but account owners may be able to access information about your items.
Where to store personal items
You can use an individual or family account to store personal passwords and other items in 1Password. These accounts are separate from your university account and none of the items in them are available to UW-Madison. Learn more about how to use multiple accounts and move your items between them.
When you get a free 1Password Families membership with your university account, your family account is managed and accessible only by you and the people you invite to it. If you leave the university account, you can unlink your family account and add a payment method to keep using it.
