Is BBO Extractor safe?
BBO Extractor sends scraped Bridge Base tournament rankings, traveller results, and hand data to dds.bridgewebs.com.
When the user starts the extension from the toolbar on Bridge Base tournament pages, it reads ranking tables, player names, scores, contracts, dates, and hand records from the page. It packages the extracted CSV and hand data and submits them through hidden forms to BridgeWebs endpoints for processing.

What this publisher told the store about itself, and the other listings that told it the same thing.
Same store account
1 other listing published from this account, 3k+ users between them, none of them carrying a finding.
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.
AI-generated. Findings may contain errors. Those marked Verified have been manually reviewed.

What it can do
Permissions this extension asks for, as declared in version 1.4.12. Asking for a permission is not a finding on its own - it is what the extension can do if it chooses to.

Where it sends data
Destinations our analysis observed BBO Extractor 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.
