 The deviceId is only registered with the screenshots.firefox.com server when the user first saves a shot.  Starting Screenshots or downloading does not cause registration.
 
-Each event is sent to the server with its deviceId.  The server hashes this ID (combining it with a random server string that is rotated occasionally) before sending it to Google Analytics.  This hashed ID is generally called `cid` (customer ID, a Google Analytics term).
+An alternate way to authenticate with server is by successful signin to firefox account. An accountId which is a uid returned by fxa-auth-server is assigned once a user login with firefox account and its value is reset on signout from settings.
