 * Hi and congratulations for your amazing CF7-GoogleSheet plugin.
 * I’m wondering about the security of the plugin. When I try to add it into my 
   google account, it requeries me to allow it checking an viewing all my files 
   in Google Drive. Is it this safe? How can I know you are not seeing all my private
   information?
 * Thank you very much.

 * Hello [@davidsito](https://wordpress.org/support/users/davidsito/)
 * Thanks for asking the questions you have
 * For a security concern the plugin we use [Google Sheet API Client Library](https://github.com/googleapis/google-api-php-client)
   just for authentication with your account. Where we save authentication token
   and Contact Form->Edit->Google Sheet settings data to your website database.
 * Also, Google provides a [security check](https://myaccount.google.com/security-checkup/6)
   for a 3rd party app access which you can open from your account and check.
 * Also, you can check the [permissions ](https://myaccount.google.com/permissions)
   you have given under 3rd Party
 * Overall, we do not have any access or any type of permission to access or view
   any of the files, everything is handled with the help of API only provided by
   Google. So nothing to worry about, it’s 100% safe.
 * Feel free to let me know if you have any questions further.
 * Thanks
    Abdullah

 * Thanks a lot, Abdullah.
 * I was wondering because I checked the Google Security Check and I did not understand
   why the plugin needs Google Drive access. Now I get all it’s safe because of 
   the direct-form connection using the API, and every data is only on my website.
 * Nice job!
 * Chears!
