Default Google Chrome Frame for IE

Does anyone know it? It is a plugin for IE to work around IE's inadequate handling of HTML5 standard. It allows the display and the functinality of modern websites using according code.

Now, my first issue is it is by Google, which alone is a reason for suspicion, and seoncd, it mentions Chrome, the by far most data-krakening webbrowser on ther whole web - also a reason for worries.

Before I install a plugin with "Google" and "Chrome" in it, I want to know ehther it is compromsing my system in any way like Google services do, or Chrome does. Or is it just adding a neutral functionality to IE without opening any black channels and bypasses behind my visible screen?

Asking because I just found out that the virtual museum of Google's Art Project suddenly do not work without this plugin anymore.
