Is UpAhead Sync Companion safe?

Clean risk

UpAhead Sync Companion uploads your school LMS session cookies to the vendor's cloud servers after each sync.

After syncing a school learning management system (Blackboard, Canvas, Moodle or D2L), the extension reads all cookies for that LMS site, including session cookies, and sends them to the vendor's Google Cloud Function. The vendor uses them to re-sync later without asking for multi-factor login. This requires granting host access to the LMS site and is on by default unless the sync option disables it.
