Is Website Informer Addon safe?

Clean risk

Website Informer Addon sends each visited tab hostname to website.informer.com for reputation lookup.

Website Informer Addon watches tab navigation and extracts the hostname from each page URL as the page starts loading. It sends that hostname to Website Informer to retrieve reputation and site details, and may send the same hostname again to enqueue a lookup if the service asks for it.
