I am glad you asked.

It only goes to the crochik.com web page the first time you run the application (until you sign in) and when you click new account (until you sign in).

It does not send any information to it. Right now this page is working as the about (and help in a near future). I plan to add a help icon later on. For instance, I have a way to allow you to reset the application (delete all the accounts and clear cookies) by addind a special link to that page (I removed it for now until I can write instructions)

The most important thing is that NO INFORMATION is sent or stored on my server. The auto login and switch between google accounts is all done using the "google cookies". I don't even mess with them - I just store them in separate "containers" so you can switch beteen accounts without having to login again.

Please make sure to ask for more details if I missed anything. Like you I like to know what is going on
