Is What is my IP safe?

Low risk

What is my IP sends your public IP address to ip-api.com over cleartext HTTP.

When you open the extension popup, it looks up your public IP address and then requests city and country details from ip-api.com. That geolocation request uses cleartext HTTP, so ip-api.com receives the IP address lookup and network observers may be able to see the request and response.

Where it sends data

Destinations our analysis observed What is my IP 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.
