Is Photo Zoom safe?

Low risk

Photo Zoom fetches server-supplied scripts and evaluates them in its all-sites content script.

Photo Zoom runs a content script on every site and loads image-processing rules from extensions.extfun.com. Those server-provided functions are stored locally and evaluated in the page context when the extension handles hovered images. A separate all-sites keyboard shortcut path can ask Chrome to download the currently selected image URL without checking whether the event came from a real user action.

Where it sends data

Destinations our analysis observed Photo Zoom 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.

  • extensions.extfun.com

    Photo Zoom sends data to extensions.extfun.com. No other extension we have analysed sends data here.
