Is Acrolinx for Chrome safe?

Clean risk

Acrolinx for Chrome sends active-page text and URL to the configured Acrolinx sidebar for checking.

When a user opens the Acrolinx sidebar, the extension injects its sidebar SDK and content script into the active tab. The sidebar can extract page content and the page URL, then passes them to the configured Acrolinx server for writing checks.
