External services
This plugin connects to external third-party services for payment processing and licensing. By using this plugin, you agree to the terms of these services.
Stripe
This plugin uses Stripe to process payments. When a reader subscribes, purchases an article, or leaves a tip, the plugin creates a Stripe Checkout session and redirects the reader to Stripe’s hosted checkout page. Stripe handles all payment processing — no credit card data is stored on your WordPress site.
Data sent to Stripe:
* When a reader checks out: the product name, price, currency, and a success/cancel URL pointing back to your site
* When managing subscriptions: subscription ID and update parameters
* Webhook events: Stripe sends payment confirmation events back to your site for order fulfillment
Stripe links:
* Stripe Terms of Service
* Stripe Privacy Policy
Freemius
This plugin uses Freemius for license management and update delivery. On activation, you’ll see an opt-in screen where you can choose to share diagnostic data (such as your site URL, WordPress version, PHP version, and plugin version) to help us provide updates and support — or skip this and continue with the free version anonymously. No data is sent to Freemius unless you actively opt in.
