Dropbox accesses Google Account information

Hi,

Dropbox refused to let me Reply to the post made on;

https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/Integrations/Why-does-Dropbox-have-access-to-info-from-my-Google-account/m-p/339067#M3386

 

The question was not answered, if someone sings into Dropbox using Google account that gives Dropbox access to Google Account / Contact information, how do you reverse or stop this??

    Hi there James72 - it seems that you were trying to reply to an older - now locked - post, this is probably why you couldn't reply there in the first place.

     

    When it comes to your concern now, could you clarify if you've already signed in your Dropbox account using the Google Sign-In method and confirm that you'd like to go back to signing in your Dropbox account by using your Dropbox credentials?

     

    When you go to your Google account's settings, do you see Dropbox as a connected app? 

     

    Keep me posted, James.
