ya its safe coz the code is open source u can check on github  
Also u can deploy your own but the procedure is lengthy and difficult coz it needs basic knowledge of Drive api and heroku

If you’re using a Google Suite email which has unlimited Google Drive storage, then your organization can see which files you have there.

For eg., suppose I have an email such as [mike@examplename.com](mailto:mike@examplename.com), and that [examplename.com](http://examplename.com) is a domain in which the webmaster has a Google Suite account (with unlimited gdrive storage).

In theory, he/she can see files uploaded by all its members. Since I’m a member ([mike@examplename.com](mailto:mike@examplename.com)), my files can be seen by the admin.

As for the heroku script, I haven’t looked at it, but I suppose it’s safe. Just upload stuff you don’t mind losing.
