Is URL Shortener & QR Code Generator - QuickLink safe?

Clean risk

QuickLink sends the active tab URL to is.gd to create shortened links and shortened QR codes.

When you open the popup, QuickLink reads the current tab URL and requests is.gd/create.php with logstats=1 and the URL in the query string. It uses the returned short link for the popup or QR code and keeps the original URL and short link in local extension storage for its history view.
