Is Subtly — Subtitles. Translator. Word training safe?
Subtly sends selected page text to Skyeng, Yandex, and Google translation services.
Subtly runs content scripts across visited pages and reads the text you select for translation or word training. When you request a translation, it sends selected words or phrases to its own API and external dictionary or translation services, including Skyeng, Yandex, and Google endpoints.

What this publisher told the store about itself, and the other listings that told it the same thing.
Same store account
1 other listing published from this account, 100k+ users between them, none of them carrying a finding.
Shared hosts - 1 hostname
Hostnames hardcoded in this extension that few other listings call. That can mean one operator behind both, and it can equally mean a small shared vendor, so it is context rather than a conclusion. Hosts that many listings call are left out: they are services, not connections.

What it can do
Permissions this extension asks for, as declared in version 1.5.33. Asking for a permission is not a finding on its own - it is what the extension can do if it chooses to.
