It sounds like you are referring to this: About iCloud Data Recovery Service - Apple Support



For certain sensitive information, such as your Keychain, Screen Time, and Health data, Apple uses end-to-end encryption. This data is not accessible via the iCloud Data Recovery Service. Only you can access this information, and only on devices where you're signed in to iCloud. Your device passcodes, which only you know, are required to decrypt and access it.
