Is Bookmark Drag and Drop safe?

Medium risk

Bookmark Drag and Drop sends new-tab search terms to search.bookmark-folders.com with a fixed tracking token.

Bookmark Drag and Drop replaces Chrome's new-tab page with its own bookmark interface and search box. When a user submits a search from that page, the extension redirects the query to search.bookmark-folders.com with a fixed token in the URL.
