## Frontier Authentication
The first time that you run the app while playing the game you are redirected to Frontier's authentication website and prompted for your username and password. This is the same username and password combination that you use to log into the Elite: Dangerous launcher.
This step is required so that the Frontier servers can send the app *your* data and the data for the station that *you* are docked at. Refer to the [Privacy Policy](Privacy-Policy.md) for how this app handles your data.
Some options work by reading the Elite: Dangerous game's log files. If you're running this app on a different machine from the Elite: Dangerous game then adjust the “E:D journal file location” setting on the Configuration tab to point to the game's log files.
