Is Advanced Audio Equalizer safe?

Clean risk

Advanced Audio Equalizer sends the active tab domain and equalizer settings to Google Analytics from its popup.

When the popup opens or equalizer starts, the extension sends analytics events with a persistent client ID and the active tab's domain. Those events also include whether the tab is connected, enabled audio features, profile counts, and user type.

Where it sends data

Destinations our analysis observed Equalizer 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.
