External Services

This plugin relies on the SMSTunnel plugin to send SMS notifications. When a Contact Form 7 form is submitted, the following data may be transmitted to the SMSTunnel service and your paired Android device:

Form field values included in the SMS template (name, email, phone, message, etc.)
Submission metadata if used in the template (IP address via [_remote_ip], date, time)

Data is sent only when SMS notifications are enabled for a specific form. The SMS is relayed through the SMSTunnel server to your own Android phone, which sends it as a standard SMS message.
