It is stored encrypted on the computer; the phone holds the key and never sees the password. Traffic between your devices is encrypted with a key created during pairing. Cloud traffic is end-to-end encrypted, so the servers cannot read it.

The unlock process can be cancelled at any time by pressing Ctrl+Alt on the PC. Support: Having issues?
