Is Offers.com safe?
Offers.com looks up your current site against its merchant list and fetches matching coupons over plain, unencrypted HTTP.
Every time you switch tabs or open the popup, Offers.com checks the site you're on against a cached list of partner merchants and, on a match, requests coupon offers for that merchant from its own backend. These lookups and responses travel over plain HTTP rather than HTTPS, so the merchant site you're browsing and the offer data returned are readable and tamperable by anyone on the same network, such as open Wi-Fi.

Offers.com - no other listings under this identity, 2 shared hostnames
What this publisher told the store about itself, and the other listings that told it the same thing.
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.

Where it sends data
Destinations our analysis observed Offers.com 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.
