Is it safe?

How it actually works is very secure:
How it actually works is very secure:
- First, the user is prompted a 6 character unique random link code generated and encrypted in our secure database.
- Next, the user goes to the website to grant access to Digital Picture Frame to the cloud/social account.
- Extra long tokens are generated by the service providers and are stored for 2 hours on our secure database.
- Once Digital Picture Frame requests the tokens, they are transferred over a secure connection to the Roku device/TV in question and are stored in an encrypted database on the device available only to the app.
- From that time on, secure connections are established between Digital Picture Frame and the service providers to list folders, download media, etc.
- When the source is unlinked or the app is uninstalled, account tokens and all data cached by Digital Picture Frame on the device is wiped.
