Depends on what type of reset you are doing.

Settings > General > Reset >

  • Reset All Settings
  • Erase All Content and Settings*
  • Reset Network Settings
  • Reset Keyboard Dictionary
  • Reset Home Screen Layout
  • Reset Location & Privacy


*Warning: The Erase All Content and Settings will erase all the content on your iPhone.

The other resets are safe.
