Is Web Filter for Chrome safe?

Clean risk

Web Filter for Chrome sends each visited site's domain to Vionika to check categories before allowing or blocking navigation.

On each top-level page navigation, the extension extracts the site's domain and any URL-like domains embedded in query parameters. It posts those domains to Vionika's categorization service with a bundled API key, then uses the returned categories to decide whether to block the tab.
