Is GMB Audit - Local SEO Tool safe?
GMB Audit - Local SEO Tool forwards Google Maps search responses to api.getgmbaudit.com for decoding.
When it runs on Google Maps, the extension hooks page XHR responses and sends map search response bodies to getgmbaudit's Parse Cloud endpoint to decode the results. If you use the injected audit controls, it also sends the selected place ID to api.getgmbaudit.com to look up business profile details.
