BackWPup - Drop Box - 'This app will be able to read and modify everything'

Hello, Is this safe to do , I don't like the idea of giving this plugin full access to my drop box files. Why does it need to be able to read and modify everything?

Looks legit but the only way to be certain is by reading the code.
And, the code is available for you to modify if you want to change its rights.

If you want to restrict its access without code perhaps you could setup a dropbox account just for this?
