Hello HebaSaleh,


Thank you for using Apple Support Communities. Based on your post, you'd like to know if restoring your iPhone will cause iCloud data loss.


If you restore the iPhone to factory settings, it will remove all iCloud data (unless you have Find My enabled). However, you can sign back in to iCloud during the set up process to restore what you can from iCloud.


You can also sign in to the iCloud website, to see what information has been synced there in the past: Sign in to iCloud


Hoping this helps out, take care.
