# Backup INTMAX Account

### Overview

This page and its subpages explain how to back up your INTMAX account. You can **export your private key** and **backup your transaction data**.

Backing up your transaction data is especially important, as it provides an effective way to safeguard your assets if issues arise with the INTMAX network.
