Is Petapator safe?
Petapator automatically sends patent and PubMed search result content to its chat backend.
When supported patent or PubMed search pages load or change, Petapator fetches individual result records, parses patent data, article metadata, abstracts, and available full-text snippets, then posts that content to its chat service. The upload can run during initial page setup without a click because the initialization path skips the quota gate.
Part of this rating comes from analysis signals we haven't published as detailed findings yet.

What this publisher told the store about itself, and the other listings that told it the same thing.
Shared hosts - 1 hostname
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.

What it can do
Permissions this extension asks for, as declared in version 11.8. Asking for a permission is not a finding on its own - it is what the extension can do if it chooses to.

Where it sends data
Destinations our analysis observed Petapator 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.
