Is TransParrot: YouTube Translate & Dual Subtitles safe?
TransParrot sends YouTube watch page details and translation activity to Google Analytics.
When a YouTube watch page loads or the video changes, the extension sends the page URL, page title, video ID, previous video ID, and a stored client ID through its background script. Translation requests also include the video ID, selected language, gender, and timing metadata before the background script posts the event to Google Analytics.
