Privacy Policy

This plugin connects to FixQuotes.com to retrieve quote data:

  • Data Retrieved: Quote text, author name, author URL, quote image URL
  • Data Sent: No visitor data. The request carries only WordPress’ standard user agent, which includes your site’s address
  • Data Storage: Quotes are cached locally using WordPress transients, plus one option holding the most recent quote as a fallback
  • Third-Party Service: FixQuotes.com – Privacy Policy

Quote images are loaded by your visitors’ browsers directly from the FixQuotes CDN, which means their IP address is visible to that CDN in the same way as for any externally hosted image.

No personal information about your visitors is collected or transmitted by this plugin.
