Is Custom Aurora Background safe?
Custom Aurora Background requests your precise geolocation and sends the coordinates to OpenWeatherMap on every new tab.
On each new tab, the extension calls the browser's geolocation API to get your precise latitude and longitude, then sends those coordinates to OpenWeatherMap's weather API over HTTPS to display local weather on the page. No other destinations or data types beyond location coordinates were found.
