In-depth safety analysis
This extension asks for permissions that allow it to read and modify the content of the currently active tab when you click its button, add items to your right-click menu, inject code into pages, and store data locally without size limits. For a tool that reforms web pages for printing, saving as PDF, or taking screenshots, this scope is expected—it needs to access page content to clean up layouts and generate the output you see.
With any productivity extension that processes website content, a careful user should be aware that while the extension can read the text and structure of pages you actively use it on, the permission model generally limits background access. The developer has declared to the Chrome Web Store that it collects website content, does not sell user data, and does not use data for unrelated purposes or creditworthiness decisions. These are self-reported statements, not independently verified certifications.
The fact sheet shows the strongest dimension is Maintenance & Ownership, indicating the extension is actively updated and has a solid track record by that metric. Publisher & Identity scores lower, which in this context typically means there is less publicly available information about the company behind the extension, not that any wrongdoing has been identified. Users who prioritize verified corporate transparency may want to research the publisher further on their own.
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.
