Is Reflect New Tab safe?

Low risk

Reflect New Tab reads recent browser history for new-tab widgets and uses location data for weather and timezone features.

The new tab page automatically reads recent browser history for its Last Visited Websites widget and uses up to 30 days of history locally for search suggestions. Its default location widgets contact IP geolocation, reverse-geocoding, and weather services with IP-derived location data or, if browser geolocation is granted, coordinates.
