External Services

This plugin communicates with external servers to fetch XML feed content that you explicitly configure. No data is sent to any third party.

Feed Fetching

What data is sent: An HTTP GET request is made to the feed URL you provide. No user-identifiable information, WordPress credentials, or personal data is included in the request.
Service provider: The server hosting the XML feed URL you configure (varies per user).
When it occurs: When you click Validate in the Import Wizard, when you run a manual import, or when a scheduled cron import fires.
Privacy Policy: No privacy policy is required from third-party services since no user data is transmitted.

Image Downloading

What data is sent: An HTTP GET request is made to the image URLs found in your configured XML feed. No user-identifiable information is included.
Service provider: The server hosting the images referenced in your XML feed.
When it occurs: Only when the “Download Images” option is enabled for a feed and an import is running.
