User reviews

5,000+ installs (users) and only 4 reviews is crazy work... I was lucky enough to sign-up for Privacy many years ago when it was still in early preview, if I remember correctly, and I cannot overstate how many times their service has been life-saving for me. Multiple times I signed-up for a free trial of an app, website, whatever, and even though I double-and-triple checked that I'd properly canceled the subscription prior to the free trial ending (even reading the fine print in the emails, fully ensuring I'd completed every single required step), they'd still attempt a charge... thankfully, I'd signed-up using one of my virtual cards from Privacy and had already paused it before they tried. Once, I had a huge dispute with Microsoft because they tried charging me $600 for 1-month of free static website hosting on Azure... thankfully, I'd already set a monthly charge limit on Privacy (ended up being their fault, a miscalculation that would've otherwise been pulled out of my account.) 🥳

Extension safety

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Privacy | Protect Your Payments requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that an Edge add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Edge add-on reputation on Edge Add-on Store, the amount of time the Edge add-on has been around, and other signals about the Edge add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing an Edge add-on.

Privacy | Protect Your Payments is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
