Is SFL safe?
SFL fetches remote search-provider rules and uses them to redirect address-bar search queries.
SFL requests search-provider settings from structured-find-language.org and stores them in browser sync storage. When Google, Bing, or Ecosia address-bar search pages load, it extracts the search text from the URL and redirects the page to the configured provider search URL.

Where it sends data
Destinations our analysis observed SFL 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.
- structured-find-language.org
SFL sends data to structured-find-language.org. No other extension we have analysed sends data here.
