Is AppStartTab safe?
AppStartTab sends searches from its new-tab page to appstartsearch.com with a fixed affiliate parameter.
When you use the search box on AppStartTab's new-tab page, the extension submits the typed search query to appstartsearch.com. The request includes a fixed subid affiliate parameter, and empty searches also go to the same dynamiclander endpoint.

What it can do

Where it sends data
