Handy, Safari's password manager is enabled by default and linked to your macOS ID. It allows you to save your login details on any website, if you allow the web browser to do so.
Another advantage: passwords are accessible (by you alone), protected by your macOS user password. This tutorial shows you how to protect your privacy by allowing you to recover forgotten passwords.
Show passwords in Safari settings
