Is Dict.cc Translation safe?

Clean risk

Dict.cc Translation sends selected page text or clicked words to dict.cc for translation.

When quick translation is enabled, the extension's content script can read selected text on a page or detect the word under the cursor. It sends that text to the background script, which requests a translation from dict.cc's gadget endpoint.
