Is Website Translator safe?
Website Translator sends selected page text to Google Translate and opens whole-page translations with the current URL.
When you select text on any website and click the translation icon, the extension sends that selected text to Google Translate for translation. If you choose whole-page translation, it redirects the active tab through Google Translate with the current page URL in the request. Its translation UI can also load logo assets from ConveyThis when shown on a page.

Where it sends data
Destinations our analysis observed Website Translator contacting. Sending data somewhere is not a finding on its own - an extension that syncs your settings has to talk to its own server - but it is where your data can go, and who else it goes to.
