Is Y2Mate safe?

Clean risk

Y2Mate opens y2mate.nu with the active YouTube video ID when you click Convert to MP3.

When you click the popup button, Y2Mate reads the active tab URL and extracts the 11-character video ID from a YouTube watch or Shorts page. If it finds one, it opens https://y2mate.nu/#<video id>, placing that video identifier in the y2mate.nu page URL.

Where it sends data

Destinations our analysis observed Y2Mate 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.
