External Services
This plugin connects to the following external services:
Stripe
PayGate Content Restriction uses Stripe to process payments and manage subscriptions.
- What data is sent: When a user subscribes, their WordPress user ID, email address, and selected membership tier are used to create a Stripe Customer and initiate a Checkout Session. Stripe receives whatever billing information the user enters during checkout.
- When it is sent: Only when a logged-in user clicks a “Get Access” or “Subscribe” button to initiate checkout, or when a Stripe webhook event is received and verified.
- Stripe’s terms of service: https://stripe.com/legal
- Stripe’s privacy policy: https://stripe.com/privacy
Freemius (Pro version only)
The Pro version of this plugin uses Freemius for license management and automatic updates.
- What data is sent: WordPress site URL, plugin version, and (with user consent) basic site and admin contact information for license activation.
- When it is sent: Only when the Pro version is active and a license is being activated or checked.
