External services

This plugin connects to the following external services:

Google Fonts (fonts.googleapis.com)

When a popup is displayed on the frontend, this plugin loads the selected Google Font from Google’s servers to render custom typography.
Data sent: the font family name and the visitor’s IP address are transmitted to Google’s servers on each page load where an active popup with a custom font is shown.
* Terms of Service: https://developers.google.com/fonts/faq/privacy
* Privacy Policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy

hls.js CDN (cdn.jsdelivr.net)

When a popup of type “HLS Stream” is used, the plugin loads the hls.js library from the jsDelivr CDN. This is required to play HLS (.m3u8) video streams in browsers without native HLS support.
Data sent: the visitor’s IP address is transmitted to jsDelivr’s servers when the library is loaded.
* Terms of Service: https://www.jsdelivr.com/terms
* Privacy Policy: https://www.jsdelivr.com/privacy-policy-jsdelivr-net

Note: these external connections only occur when a popup with a Google Font or an HLS video stream is displayed. If no such popups are active on a page, no data is transmitted to these services.

Privacy Policy

Elegant Popup does not collect, store, or transmit any personal data from site visitors. No cookies are set by this plugin. No external services are contacted except Google Fonts (loaded from fonts.googleapis.com for font rendering in admin and frontend) and hls.js CDN (loaded from cdn.jsdelivr.net for HLS video streaming support).

If you use HLS streaming or Google Fonts, your visitors’ IP addresses may be processed by Google and jsDelivr respectively, subject to their own privacy policies.
