Is Colour Ninja safe?
Colour Ninja extracts colours and gradients from web pages and sends usage analytics to Google Analytics.
The extension runs on every page to read colours and gradients, which it shows in its popup. Its Discover tab loads a tool list from the developer's GitHub repository and renders it in the popup. Usage events are sent to Google Analytics.

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
