1Exporting your passwords

Data portability is important. Good password managers let you export your data anytime, ensuring you're never locked in.

2Export formats

Most managers offer CSV export for universal compatibility. Some provide encrypted formats or proprietary formats that preserve more metadata.

3When to export

Export before switching managers. Keep periodic encrypted backups. Some users export to encrypted file storage for disaster recovery.

4Security best practices

Export to encrypted formats when possible. If using CSV, delete it immediately after use. Never email or cloud-sync unencrypted exports.
