Timmy is a completely free program created entirely by Red Squirrel.
This program works by analyzing the HTML code of the official websites of various online stores, so it might stop working at any moment as a result of changes made by the owners to their websites. The author therefore does NOT guarantee the absolute certainty of the prices acquired by the program.
The author is NOT in any way related to any of the online shops supported by this program, so he is NOT in any way responsible for the material present on their websites.
The author makes NO warranty of use of this program and for this reason disclaims any liability for any damages of any kind caused by an improper use.

    Important notes:
    - The program uses the official libraries offered by Dropbox itself HERE. No custom and dangerous code. Everything to ensure you the maximum security.
    - The program, for a deeper security, will NOT ask for any access data to your account, it simply will allow you to connect to your Dropbox account using the official PIN.
    - The program will NOT have permission to access to your files on Dropbox: it will create a specific folder for this application and the program will have the permission to access just only the files inside it.
    - The program will overwrite the same backup file, so it will require a very little space on your account!
