The plugin itself does no syncing, but if you use another plugin that does (like Goodreads Sync), then all the info this plugins needs, will be already available. You just have to set your goal.

That's the date of your last reading, when you reached the current reading progress.

Yes. The total page count of the book. Count Pages plugin can give this info. I don't know if Goodreads Sync does.

Like I said, this plugin does no syncing and does not modify calibre database. So, you are safe. It has its own database, filled with data collected from calibre custom columns. This allows it to generate graphics and keep record of you readings.
