Is Extension Manager safe?

Clean risk

Extension Manager reads open tab URLs to apply rules that enable, disable, or reload selected extensions.

When tabs are created, updated, removed, or replaced, Extension Manager reads the current tab URLs and compares them with user-saved rules to change selected extensions' enabled state. The popup also sends extension toggle and view-switch events with a generated client ID to Google Analytics.

Where it sends data

Destinations our analysis observed Extension Manager 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.
