Is it safe to sign in with Steam on optix9.xyz?
Yes, it is safe. The Sign in with Steam button on optix9.xyz uses Steam OpenID, Valve's official login system: your password is typed only on steamcommunity.com and Optix9 never sees it. The site only receives your public SteamID64, your name and your avatar, and the Connect button simply opens the game you already have installed. On top of that, playing on the servers does not require any web account.
How Sign in with Steam works (Steam OpenID)
When you click Sign in with Steam, your browser takes you to steamcommunity.com, Valve's official page, and that is where you type your username and password. optix9.xyz never shows a password form and never receives your credentials: Steam only confirms to the site who you are. This system is called Steam OpenID and it is the same official mechanism used by thousands of community sites. If you ever see a password field outside steamcommunity.com, do not fill it in.
What data optix9.xyz receives from your account
After you sign in, the site receives only your SteamID64 (a public identifier), your profile name and your avatar. These are the same details anyone can see on your Steam profile. Optix9 does not get your password or any access to operate your account. With that session you can use web features like the free skins loadout editor at https://optix9.xyz/perfil or view your player profile at /player/<steamid64>.
What the Connect button does (steam://connect)
The Connect button on https://optix9.xyz/servers and on each server's page uses a steam://connect link. That link only asks Steam to open the game you already have installed and point it at the server's IP, for example 155.117.117.76:27225. It does not download programs, does not install anything and does not grant any permissions over your account. It is the equivalent of opening the in-game console and typing connect 155.117.117.76:27225 yourself.
Do I need to register to play on Optix9?
No. Playing on the servers requires no registration or web login. Just open the in-game console (enable it in Options → Keyboard or with the -console launch option) and type connect 155.117.117.76 followed by the server's port, for example connect 155.117.117.76:27215 for the CS:GO DM. Signing in with Steam is only needed for web features, such as picking free skins at /perfil or requesting the VPN whitelist.
