Is Sales Boost Connect safe?
Sales Boost Connect sends your WhatsApp number, profile name and Chrome email to wa-web-plus.web.app.
When WhatsApp Web loads, the extension reads the logged-in WhatsApp phone number and profile name, and also reads the Chrome profile email. It sends these, with the extension version, to its own server without any prompt or visible notice. A separate event sends the phone number and extension details to a reference endpoint on the same host.

Where it sends data
