Storing 1Password in Dropbox - is it safe?

in 1Password 4 for Windows

More and more applications asks permissions to store files in DropBox.

If I give a 3rd party company access to store files in my DropBox, won't they be able to download my 1Password files and try to hack them?

Thx

    Yes they can try to hack your 1Password data but it is encrypted with PBKDF2+AES256. Assuming you have a strong master password, your 1Password data is safe.

    You can also be selective about what folders you share with others in Dropbox.

    It's not really necessary, though, because @svondutch is absolutely right: your 1Password data is as safe as your master password makes it, no matter where you store it.
