Is Short.io Link Manager safe?

Clean risk

Short.io Link Manager sends active-tab screenshots and URLs to Short.io when you use its popup or context-menu tools.

When you click the screenshot button, the extension captures the visible active tab and sends the image and selected domain to Short.io's backend with your Short.io token. When you use the page, link, or image shortening actions, it sends the current page URL or clicked link/image URL to Short.io so the service can create a shortened link.
