Is Pepper | Shopping with Savings safe?
Pepper sends visited shopping hostnames and detected product details to Browsy APIs for deals and price comparison.
On pages where the content script runs, Pepper asks Browsy for domain information using the visited site's hostname so it can decide whether to show shopping offers. When remote price-comparison features are enabled and a product is detected, it can send a product name or GTIN, and related page information in its product-detection log, to Browsy services.

What this publisher told the store about itself, and the other listings that told it the same thing.
Shared hosts - 1 hostname
Hostnames hardcoded in this extension that few other listings call. That can mean one operator behind both, and it can equally mean a small shared vendor, so it is context rather than a conclusion. Hosts that many listings call are left out: they are services, not connections.
