Is Lootup Deal Finder safe?
Lootup Deal Finder bundles OAuth credentials and sends visited shopping domains to Kindred's API.
The extension ships Kindred OAuth client credentials and an anonymous signing key in its code, then uses them to request tokens from api-partners.kindred.co. It monitors completed tab loads across all sites, sends visited domains and affiliate context to Kindred's domain-search endpoint, and can send full store URLs when automatic deal activation opens tracking links.
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 operator - 9 listings
Published under a different store account, but sharing the registered address, contact or declared legal entity this one gave the store.
Shared hosts - 2 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.
