PBW_ENCRYPTION_KEY: Your encryption key. Generate a strong random one and store it in a safe place, as PG Back Web uses it to encrypt sensitive data.

What contents are included in sensitive data?
Is the exported dump.sql encrypted?
Can the exported dump.sql be imported into other databases without going through PG Back Web?
