Does using lihgtning terminal represents a lost of privacy since the server will have info about channels, liquidity of channels and onchain balances and addresses of onchain balances? How those info are dealed inside their server?

thanks, but the info I was actually looking for was here: https://docs.lightning.engineering/lightning-network-tools/lightning-terminal/privacy-and-security#privacy
LiT is mainly used by PUBLIC routing servers, that buy/sell liquidity. So their node information (IP, location, channels etc) is ALREADY PUBLIC. it's meaningless to demand more privacy from a marketplace of liquidity, you are already in public.
If you want more privacy, run private nodes.
My concern reguards lightning transactions and onchain funds and onchain addresses, but from what I read in their website that info is secure.
Any time you bridge your node to an application that operates over the web you introduce a potential surface for metadata exposure and operational logging on the application side. The trade off between usability and privacy is inherent here and the real safeguard is to run your node in a security conscious environment while understanding exactly which permissions you grant through baked macaroons...
