What data does the extension use?

The browser extension only uses the addresses (URLs) of the websites that you visit to check if they are safe or harmful. It does not read or modify any other parts of the content on the pages that you open. The addresses are sent to our Security Cloud anonymously without any information that could identify you. For more details on how we handle data, see our Privacy Statement.
