Appneck

This Plugin uses Appneck SDK to collect some telemetry data upon the user’s confirmation to troubleshoot problems faster & make product improvements.
Appneck SDK does not gather any data by default. The SDK only starts gathering basic telemetry data when a user allows it via the admin notice. We collect the data to ensure a great user experience for all our users. Integrating Appneck SDK DOES NOT IMMEDIATELY start gathering data, without confirmation from users in any case.
Learn more about how Appneck collects and uses this data.
