App for Tracking Finances (Mint, Personal Capital, etc.)

I've been reading about apps for helping to give quick overviews of my finances. Many people use Mint, and now it seems there is a more advanced and useful product called Personal Capital. The thing that has me stumped is security. If I am giving all of my bank account details for every account I own to some provider, what happens when (not if) they are hacked? Is there a way to grant "read only" access to my accounts? Can anyone explain what is in place to keep my money mine if I were to use an awesomely useful app like one of these?
