Is PremierLeague Stats safe?

Medium risk

PremierLeague Stats sends new-tab search terms to prls.premierleaguestats-ext.com with a tracking ID.

PremierLeague Stats replaces the browser new tab page with its own search form. When you submit a search, it redirects the browser to prls.premierleaguestats-ext.com and includes the typed search term in the q URL parameter together with the fixed tracking ID 1020683.

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.
