Savings Addon Removal Guide

Do you know what Savings Addon is?

Savings Addon is a browser plugin that should be removed from your computer if you do not intend to use it often. This browser extension can be installed on Google Chrome, Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox. In a sense, it performs the same function as Deal Vault, Deal Boat, Discount Buddy and other similar extensions developed by Innovative Apps (215 Apps). It displays a list of coupon deals for websites that are supported by the plugin. According to the official website at savingsaddon.com, the plugin is compatible with over a 1000 online stores, including Expedia, kmart, Toys R Us and so on. Although the extension is not a dangerous computer virus, you should still remove Savings Addon from your PC to avoid any possible security risks.

The reason why Savings Addon might cause various security problems is because it uses cookies to collect personal information, in order to provide you with coupon deals and commercial advertisements that would correspond to your likes and preferences. However, in case Savings Addon gets misused by a third party all the collected information can be transferred to cyber criminals and they will use it for marketing purposes. What is more, if the plugin gets exploited by malevolent people you may as well get exposed to malware infections too.
