    <title>topic Dropbox SDK sending info to facebook, twitter, ad servers when connecting? in Dropbox API Support &amp; Feedback</title>
    <link>https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/Dropbox-API-Support-Feedback/Dropbox-SDK-sending-info-to-facebook-twitter-ad-servers-when/m-p/101979#M3056</link>
    <description>&lt;P&gt;I am using iOS SDK 1.3.13 with the iOS 8.1 simulator. When my app calls the linkFromController method, it presents the appropriate dialog to connect to Dropbox. As soon as the connection dialog appears, however, the app attempts to connect to a large number of external web addresses (detected via use of Little Snitch on my development Mac):&lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;The app itself never makes use of these other (non-Dropbox) services. Why is the Dropbox SDK connecting to facebook, twitter, and various ad servers, assuming that is what is going on?&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;The app authorization dialog is actually just a web page on &lt;A href="http://www.dropbox.com" rel="nofollow noreferrer"&gt;www.dropbox.com&lt;/A&gt;, so the connections you're seeing (e.g., to load whatever assets and scripts used on the site) from that aren't from the SDK itself exactly, but from the Dropbox web site in that in-app browser.&lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;The &lt;A href="https://www.dropbox.com/developers/core/sdks/ios" rel="nofollow noreferrer"&gt;iOS Core SDK&lt;/A&gt; is open source so you can check the code if you'd like. (For example, it doesn't have code for connecting to Facebook, Google, etc.)&lt;/P&gt;</description>
