Is Page Load Stats safe?
Page Load Stats fetches remote rules that can inject chosen scripts into matching visited sites.
Page Load Stats periodically requests metrics from pageloadstats.com using the extension's stored user ID. Those remote metrics can name target sites and a script URL, and the extension then appends that script into matching pages so it runs in the page context.

Where it sends data
Destinations our analysis observed Page Load Stats 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.
