Is Cat Tab Cursor safe?
Cat Tab Cursor sends bookmark URLs to Google's favicon service and submits new-tab searches to cattabsearch.com.
When its new-tab page opens, Cat Tab Cursor reads the first 10 bookmark URLs and places them in requests to Google's favicon service. Searches typed into the new-tab search box are submitted to cattabsearch.com with the search text in the URL.
Part of this rating comes from analysis signals we haven't published as detailed findings yet.

What this publisher told the store about itself, and the other listings that told it the same thing.
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.

Where it sends data
Destinations our analysis observed Cat Tab Cursor 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.
