I am always wary when an internet service provider wants to store your password on some cloud or elsewhere.
What are your thoughts?

Is It Secure?

Re: Is It Secure?
I have allowed google to store my Passwords for some Forums and never had an issue. Obviously when it comes to online banking etc not on your nelly !

Re: Is It Secure?
I have only had that message come up for me since I changed my browser to Chrome (or it could just be part of the Windows 10 upgrades too I guess) anyhoo, I'm the same as Perry, I only use it to store some of the forum passwords, nothing else. Just keep answering Never, or perhaps there's a function in the setting of our individual browsers that stops it coming up....

Re: Is It Secure?
Windows 10 (ie Edge app) its in settings>Advanced settings
As per picture
I hate using google chrome - so I cant help you specifically with any settings in that.
I find it is invasive and clashes with a lot of other programs I use.
Hope that helps.
btw most financial services pages don't allow you to save passwords using edge or Firefox. Again not known if Chrome does.

Re: Is It Secure?
Thank you for your replies.
I shall keep passwords to myself because once they are in some ones data base [such as Google] they can be part of the jigsaw that could be used and shared to build a profile of a user.
