What personal data we collect and why we collect it
We do not track any user data via our plugins. But if our plugin depends on any third party service, they might track user data. This can happen in the following two ways:
1. Embedded Widgets
Some of our plugins have features to integrate embedded widgets as is, from third-party services (like Facebook Like, Facebook Recommend, Twitter Tweet official buttons).
2. Third-party APIs/Connections
Our plugins send a request to third-party APIs via a website-visitors web browser to fetch information (like social shares, social comment count). This request made by web browser may include IP address, which can then be seen by the third-party that it’s being requested from. This API request doesn’t include any personal data of the website user other than the IP address.
