Odd, I can see one (and it is in the extension too)

Privacy:

The extension transmits the IP address of the server of every website visited.
No cookies are set or read from the ASNumber server and no per-user or browser
tracking or logging is done. Only aggregated statistics on the popularity of the
the looked up AS Numbers are computed. No information is made available to third
parties.
