Is Mastermind Search Companion safe?

Clean risk

Mastermind Search Companion sends supported genetics search terms, page URLs, and result titles to Mastermind's servers.

On enabled genetics and research search sites, the extension parses the current search term, page URL, and visible result titles to augment the page with Mastermind article links. It posts that data to Mastermind, and when the user is logged in and result titles are present it can also send article titles or parsed evidence URL parameters for article lookup.
