Is Capital Koala safe?
Capital Koala sends the current merchant page URL to capitalkoala.com when you activate a cashback offer.
Its content script runs on HTTP and HTTPS pages and checks the current page against a Capital Koala merchant database. When you click the activation controls, it routes the tab through a Capital Koala redirection URL that includes the original merchant page URL.

What this publisher told the store about itself, and the other listings that told it the same thing.
Shared hosts - 2 hostnames
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.

Where it sends data
Destinations our analysis observed Capital Koala 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.
