    Hi jack-gpt,

    It's up to you, whether your application will be public or not. Your Dropbox' application profile is accessible behind corresponding Dropbox account only (i.e. your account). As far as your Dropbox account is not compromised somehow, the same is valid for your application profile. Dropbox application profile has nothing to do about your application code as well as your code accessibility.

     

    Add: Just in case to avoid confusion: The opposite in not true! It's your responsibility to keep your profile safe (including behind your application accessibility). Even more, Dropbox may decide to ban your application profile due to suspicious behavior of the associated application code!
