Is Explorer for Similarweb - More Insights safe?

Clean risk

Explorer for Similarweb - More Insights sends the active tab's hostname to Similarweb when you click its button.

When you click the extension button, it reads the active tab URL, extracts the hostname, and opens a Similarweb page for that site. The reviewed source does not show content scripts or automatic browsing hooks; this action happens from the toolbar click.
