Is YouTube Video Downloader safe?

Clean risk

YouTube Video Downloader sends active tab URLs to OnRender download-processing backends.

When you start a download, the extension reads the active tab URL and places it in a request to its download-processing servers. For Pro users, the same request can also include a stored user email identifier from the extension's saved status data.
