Is RateFlix safe?
RateFlix sends Netflix title names to private.omdbapi.com to retrieve third-party ratings.
When a Netflix preview opens, RateFlix reads the title text from the page and requests IMDb, Rotten Tomatoes, and Metacritic ratings for that title. The request goes to private.omdbapi.com and the returned ratings are injected back into the Netflix page.

Where it sends data
Destinations our analysis observed RateFlix 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.
