Is Force Paster safe?

Low risk

Force Paster sends the page hostname and paste-use metadata to its Cloud Functions analytics proxy.

When Force Paster handles a paste event, it records the active page hostname, the target element type, and paste-count metadata, then sends that data with a persistent client identifier. On install or update, it also sends browser and system details such as user agent, locale, platform, timezone, extension version, and install or update timing.

Where it sends data

Destinations our analysis observed Force Paster 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.
