My Items
My Items is a location for organization members to store items that do not need to be shared with other users, while remaining under the ownership of the organization. My Items is available to members when the organization is using the Enforce organization data ownership policy.
Once the policy has been enabled by an owner or admin, My Items will be added to each organization member's vault.
warning
At this time, Bitwarden recommends only organizations that have not started onboarding members to turn on the Enforce organization data ownership policy. If your organization activated the policy before version 2025.11.0, My Items will be created for members confirmed since that release. Preexisting members will not have My Items and can continue using their My vault.
My Items is each organization member's primary location for storing items, specifically those that don't need to be shared with other members:
Items in My Items are owned by the organization. These items are not directly accessible by anyone except that member, but is subject to event logging and organization health reports.
Members can't share items in My Items with other member without first assigning them to a collection.
Items shared with a member via a collection can't be moved or added to My Items.
When the member account is removed or deleted from the organization, items in My Items is transferred to organization admins.
My Items is available as a vault filter in any Bitwarden app, for example in the web app:

For organization members that have access to it, My Items can be selected as the collection to import data into:
Organization members may import items into My Items on any Bitwarden client by selecting My Items from the Collection dropdown:
note
When you import a file to My Items, any folder references within that file will not carry over. You can organize your imported data into folders after the import is complete.
When a member is removed or is removed or deleted from the organization, items in My Items is automatically transferred to organization administrators. From there, administrators can decide how to handle these items, for example transferring them to collections for use by other members or purging them from the organization.
