Privacy

When lead capture is disabled, the plugin does not intentionally store visitor names, email addresses, phone numbers or chat message content.

When lead capture is enabled by the site administrator, the form data (first name, last name, email, phone number and message) is stored in the website’s own WordPress database. Basic source metadata such as page URL, page title, post ID, device type and creation time is stored with the lead. Site administrators are responsible for providing an appropriate privacy notice and handling stored lead data in accordance with applicable privacy laws and their site’s privacy policy.

When optional click analytics are enabled by the site administrator, the plugin stores the page path, related WordPress post ID when available, device type and click time in the website’s own WordPress database. Analytics are disabled by default.

After a lead is submitted, the visitor’s browser is sent to WhatsApp using a WhatsApp URL. The submitted lead details are included in the WhatsApp message. The use of WhatsApp is governed by the applicable WhatsApp and Meta policies.

This plugin does not send lead data or analytics data to the plugin author or to a third-party analytics service.
