A friend of mine is giving me his Nintendo Switch, he has several digital games and he doesn't plan on using his account so he's going to leave it on the switch for me to use, my idea is to create a new user and play his games from my own account because I want to have my own save data, my question is, let's suppose my friend asks me for his account later and I buy the games I played from his account on my account, will I lose my save data? The question is a bit far-fetched but I can't find any information on how it works to play games from one account on another all from the same console

save data is tied to your switch account/profile

you wont lose your save data if you no longer have access to account that owned the game
