Is Bastion Web Extension safe?
Bastion Web Extension sends installed extension names and IDs to app.bastion.tech during popup validation.
When you use its popup validation screen, Bastion Web Extension can read the list of installed extensions with Chrome's management permission and send each extension's name and ID to Bastion's validation API. The available evidence points to this happening during that validation flow, not continuously in the background.

Where it sends data
Destinations our analysis observed Bastion Web Extension contacting. Sending data somewhere is not a finding on its own - an extension that syncs your settings has to talk to its own server - but it is where your data can go, and who else it goes to.
