To turn this feature off, simply go to Settings > Safari > Autofill.

Check lock Screen Settings Siri and some other iPhone features remain active when the screen is locked. Depending on what you store on the device, you may need to turn off some of these features.

To do this, go to Settings > Face ID and Password, and then look at each option in the Allow access when locked section.
