External Services
This plugin uses the following external services:
ip-api.com — Used for geo-location to detect the visitor’s country when the “Geo-Targeting” feature is enabled and set to the ip-api.com provider. When a visitor loads the site, their IP address is sent to ip-api.com to determine their country code. This helps the plugin apply the correct consent mode (GDPR opt-in or CCPA opt-out) based on the visitor’s location.
Terms of Service: https://ip-api.com/docs/legal
Privacy Policy: https://ip-api.com/docs/legal
No external services are used for visitor ID generation. Visitor IDs are generated locally using WordPress core functions.
