Privacy / External Service

This plugin can optionally connect to an external support service operated by Technology Wisdom.

Service: https://pluginsupport.technologywisdom.com

Terms of Use: https://pluginsupport.technologywisdom.com/terms-of-use/

Privacy Policy: https://pluginsupport.technologywisdom.com/privacy-policy/

The service is used to provide in-plugin support messaging, feedback forwarding, and announcements.

Opt-in consent (required before any connection):

When you activate the plugin, an admin notice asks whether you want to allow the support connection. You can choose Allow Support Connection or No Thanks.

  • If you allow the connection, the plugin may send: site URL, site name, admin email, plugin name/version, WordPress version, and PHP version. Support requests and review/feedback details are sent only when you submit those forms. The plugin may also check weekly for announcements from Technology Wisdom.
  • If you decline (or never accept), that data is not sent to the support portal. The plugin’s core feature continues to work normally without the connection.
  • You are never required to allow the connection to use the plugin.
  • You can disconnect the support connection at any time from the plugin’s Support page by choosing Disable priority support.

Support and rating forms also include their own consent checkboxes before site information is included with a submission.

Please review the service Terms of Use and Privacy Policy before enabling the connection.
