Is GeoEdge safe?
GeoEdge sends account usernames and passwords in tools-api.geoedge.com URL paths during login and user-agent refresh.
When a user logs in or refreshes user-agent lists, GeoEdge builds HTTPS requests whose path contains the saved username and password before calling tools-api.geoedge.com. Its proxy PAC configuration can also fall back to direct connections if the selected proxy is unavailable, which may send regular browsing traffic outside the configured GeoEdge proxy.
Part of this rating comes from analysis signals we haven't published as detailed findings yet.

What this publisher told the store about itself, and the other listings that told it the same thing.
Same store account
1 other listing published from this account, 2k+ users between them, none of them carrying a finding.
Shared hosts - 1 hostname
Hostnames hardcoded in this extension that few other listings call. That can mean one operator behind both, and it can equally mean a small shared vendor, so it is context rather than a conclusion. Hosts that many listings call are left out: they are services, not connections.

What it can do
Permissions this extension asks for, as declared in version 5.0.7. Asking for a permission is not a finding on its own - it is what the extension can do if it chooses to.

Where it sends data
Destinations our analysis observed GeoEdge 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.
- tools-api.geoedge.com
GeoEdge sends data to tools-api.geoedge.com. No other extension we have analysed sends data here.
