In-depth safety analysis
This extension requests permissions to access the current tab (activeTab), read and modify page content via scripting, interact with the tab system (tabs), store settings locally (storage), and write to the clipboard (clipboardWrite). For a color picker tool, these are expected: it needs to sample colors from the page you are viewing and copy the resulting color codes. The activeTab permission means it can only access a page when you explicitly click the extension icon, which limits its background access to your browsing.
General browser extensions like color pickers are typically lower-risk than categories such as crypto wallets or password managers, but any extension that can read page content on demand should be used with awareness. A careful user should verify that the extension’s behavior matches its purpose and that it does not unexpectedly activate on sensitive pages.
AI-assisted analysis of the documented signals above (permissions, store data, privacy practices) — explains what they mean and the risks typical for this category. Not a hands-on test.

Who's Behind ColorPick Eyedropper?
- Publisher http://vidsbee.com/
Public records identify the publisher, but no individual founders or a separate registered company are named — which is what holds the Publisher & Identity score back. Less public information about who operates an extension means less you can verify about their long-term accountability.
