Is Yandex Image Search safe?
Yandex Image Search sends clicked image URLs to Yandex reverse image search when you choose its context menu item.
When you right-click an image and choose one of the extension's Yandex search options, it opens Yandex reverse image search with that image URL in the query. The extension uses the selected image's URL after explicit user action and has no content scripts or host permissions in the reviewed manifest.

Where it sends data
Destinations our analysis observed Yandex Image Search 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.
