Is Nautica safe?
Nautica sends Chrome top-sites hostnames to Google's favicon service on its new-tab page.
When you open its new-tab page, Nautica reads Chrome's topSites list and renders a favicon for each saved site. Each favicon URL includes the site's hostname in a request to www.google.com/s2/favicons, so Google receives those hostnames.

Where it sends data
Destinations our analysis observed Nautica contacting. Sending data somewhere is not a finding on its own - an extension that syncs your settings has to talk to its own server - but it is where your data can go, and who else it goes to.
