Hello pathfinder76! 👋

Thanks for the question! In order to make it easier to sign into your 1Password account on your Apple devices 1Password will store an encrypted copy of the equivalent of your Emergency Kit (which includes your Secret Key) in the iCloud Keychain.

You can read more here: About your Secret Key

I hope that helps. 🙂
