How does Magento sync with Mailchimp?

How does Magento sync with Mailchimp?

Hello,

 
I have a question about the sincying between Magento and Mailchimp. When the integration is made the first time, I assume the Magento clients are migrated to Mailchimp, correct? After that initial push, how often are the two DBs synced if the integration is on? And which one takes precedence in terms of being the "source of truth"?
 
For example, if a registered user in Magento named John is synced to Mailchimp and then is renamed to Johnathan in Magento, when will Mailchimp know about this update?
What about the other way around? Will changing the name to Johnathan in Mailchimp affect Magento? or is the syncing only one way?

Also, I noticed that in the syncing the user's addresses are not migrated to Mailchimp, is this on the side of Magento or is Mailchimp the one not allowing this type of information?
