Is OCR Scanner Extension safe?
OCR Scanner Extension sends user-selected page screenshots to its Cloud Run OCR service with a stable user ID.
When you click the popup scan action and select part of a page, the extension captures that visible tab area, crops it to an image, and sends the image to its OCR service with the selected language and a stored user ID. If you use the translate feature after OCR, the recognized text is placed into a Google Translate URL in a new tab.
