Is Relingo - Master vocabulary while browsing websites and watching YouTube safe?

Low risk

Relingo runs on every page and sends words and sentences you select to its own API and to third-party dictionary and translation services.

Relingo's content script loads on all pages (including local files) and, when you select or hover over text, posts that text to api.relingo.net for AI translation and grammar analysis. The same selections are also relayed through a background fetch proxy to outside dictionary and machine-translation providers such as Collins, Longman, Oxford, Merriam-Webster, Youdao, Microsoft Translator, NiuTrans, and DeepL to build word definitions and translations.

Part of this rating comes from analysis signals we haven't published as detailed findings yet.

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.
