Is APTEAN AI (PREVIEW) safe?

Low risk

APTEAN AI (PREVIEW) sends scoped page metadata and selected text to Aptean's AI assistant iframe.

On Aptean, Aptean Cloud, Power BI, and related scoped sites, the extension collects the current page URL, title, canonical URL, meta description, and OpenGraph/Twitter metadata as product context for the assistant. When a user chooses the Explain context-menu action, the selected text is also forwarded to the assistant for explanation. Its web-accessible side panel also accepts scoped page messages that can ask the extension to open a supplied URL in a new tab.
