No user data like credentials gets transfered. Everything between instances is done with bot like helpers that do the data transfers.
That's the problem, they don't. If you have them stored anywhere on the device you view the communities with, your credentials are not safe.
Edit: this was for someone else.
Anything can be transferred without your knowledge. Do not access hacked servers while expecting privacy.
That would require your device to get hacked, not just the server.
As for privacy... there is really little of that on Lemmy or the fediverse as a whole.
