Is Learnics safe?

Clean risk

Learnics records the URL, title and focus time of tabs you browse during a study session and passes them to its web app.

During a Learnics session, the extension logs each tab's address, title, icon and how long it is in focus, and hands this to the Learnics web app for research tracking. To build citations, it also sends article author names and the first part of PDF text to Learnics' cloud functions.

Shared hosts - 3 hostnames

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.
