Is Search Potato safe?

Low risk

Search Potato loads externally hosted S3 content whenever its new tab page opens.

Search Potato replaces Chrome's new tab page and loads remote HTML from an Amazon S3 host inside that page. This means opening a new tab contacts the remote host and can expose connection metadata such as the browser's IP address.

Where it sends data

Destinations our analysis observed Search Potato 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.
