Is Plugins Safe? — Extension Safety Profile

This extension requests only activeTab, contextMenus, and storage permissions. The activeTab permission lets it read and modify the current page's content only when you explicitly invoke the extension (for example, by clicking its icon or using a context menu item). The contextMenus permission allows it to add custom items to the right-click menu, and storage lets it save settings locally. This is a minimal, focused permission set that is normal for a general-purpose browser tool that acts on demand rather than running automatically across all sites.

For any browser extension, it is wise to consider the publisher's reputation and transparency. The fact sheet shows a lower Publisher & Identity score, which may reflect limited publicly available information about the developer. A careful user might want to verify that the extension's listing and website are consistent and that the developer has a clear privacy policy. The extension's declared privacy practices state that data is not sold or used for unrelated purposes, and the Data & Privacy dimension received a perfect score, which is reassuring.

Overall, the permission model is conservative and appropriate for the category. The strongest safety dimension is Data & Privacy, indicating that the developer's stated data handling practices are clear and aligned with user expectations. The weakest dimension is Publisher & Identity, so users who prefer extensions from highly established or widely recognized publishers may want to do additional background checks before installing.
