Typically speaking, there is always a risk, especially to private information, when using an application made by a software developer other than original developer themselves (ie. Tweetbot vs. Official Twitter application). As far as the legal aspect goes, provided the application does not alter, change or make unauthorized connections on your behalf, then it's up to the original developer whether or not they allow access from other applications. Bottom line, I would stick with the original application for every instance and for the situations where an imitation is necessary, contact the developer directly and ask them what their privacy policy is. Also, check to see the comments/reviews about the application and see if anyone else has had a problem. You might find that the knock-off application is not as good as you think. Hope that helps!
