Is Start Page - Date and Time safe?

Low risk

Start Page - Date and Time sends weather lookup requests to OpenWeather from its weather widget.

The shipped weather widget decodes a bundled OpenWeather app ID and uses it when fetching current weather. Those requests go to api.openweathermap.org and include weather request parameters such as units and language.

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

Where it sends data

Destinations our analysis observed Start Page - Date and Time 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.
