In-depth safety analysis
View Package Tracking helps monitor shipments, a common category that usually needs to read data from shopping and carrier websites to detect tracking numbers and delivery statuses. The high permissions score suggests that this extension requests only the access essential for its purpose, without overly broad privileges.
Users new to package tracking tools should understand that any extension with access to your browsing on retailer or carrier pages could, in theory, observe your purchases, addresses, and other details if those pages contain them. Reputable extensions in this category often earn trust through transparency and privacy policies. Here, the developer has declared that data is not sold, used for unrelated purposes, or used for creditworthiness, which aligns with the strong Data & Privacy rating.
The weakest aspect is Community Reputation. With a 2.8 out of 5 rating from 26 users, the extension generates some dissatisfaction, though the reason is not specified in public information. This could stem from utility issues or user experience, rather than security flaws. The publisher’s identity and maintenance scores are moderate, so it is sensible to check that the extension continues to receive updates if you choose to rely on it.
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.

- Publisher Online Search Tool
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.
