Is BrainyTab safe?
BrainyTab fetches new-tab categories and page content from cms.brainytab.com using a bundled bearer token.
BrainyTab replaces the browser's new tab page with cognitive-bias content and locally managed bookmarks. On install and in settings, it requests categories and page data from cms.brainytab.com with an Authorization bearer token embedded in the extension bundle.

Where it sends data
Destinations our analysis observed BrainyTab 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.
