Is Youtube Video Summary safe?
Youtube Video Summary sends YouTube transcripts and video metadata to ChatGPT for automatic summarization.
By default, the extension summarizes each YouTube video when it loads. It reads the video transcript, video ID, title, and author metadata, then sends that content to ChatGPT using the user's OpenAI session. If local transcript parsing fails, it also sends the YouTube video ID to youtube-browser-api.netlify.app to request transcript data.

Where it sends data
Destinations our analysis observed Youtube Video Summary 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.
