Is Mclaren Wallpaper New Tab safe?

Low risk

Mclaren Wallpaper New Tab sends shortcut URLs to Google's favicon service when it renders non-bundled shortcuts.

The new-tab shortcuts widget stores favorite shortcut URLs in browser localStorage and displays each shortcut with an icon. For shortcuts that are not bundled newtabthemebuilder.com links, it loads the icon from Google's favicon endpoint with the shortcut URL in the domain_url query parameter, so Google receives those shortcut URLs when the new-tab page renders.
