Is Free Email Tracker for Gmail, by Canary Mail safe?

Clean risk

Free Email Tracker for Gmail sends Gmail account identifiers and read-receipt events to Canary Mail and Google Analytics.

On Gmail pages, the extension derives Google Analytics IDs from the signed-in Gmail address and posts feature-use events such as login, compose, and tracking toggles to Google Analytics. For read receipts, it embeds a Canary Mail tracking pixel in outgoing messages and posts account, document, tracker, auth, and version identifiers to receipts.canarymail.io for activation and receipt state.
