External services
This plugin connects to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) Object Storage in order to upload and read media files.
- What service is used and why: Oracle Cloud Object Storage (domains under *.oraclecloud.com, for example {namespace}.compat.objectstorage.{region}.oraclecloud.com ) is used to store (PUT) and retrieve (GET) your media files and to run an optional health check.
- What data is sent and when:
- When you enable “Offload new uploads”, each uploaded attachment (file contents, filename/path) is sent via HTTPS PUT to your configured bucket and namespace.
- The admin Health Check uploads a small text file and immediately reads it back to verify connectivity.
- Standard request metadata such as your server’s IP and user agent are visible to Oracle as with any HTTPS request.
- Authentication: All requests are signed client-side with AWS Signature V4 using the Access Key ID and Secret Key you provide in the plugin settings. Keys are stored in your WordPress database (options) and are never sent anywhere except as part of the standard signature headers to OCI.
- Privacy and terms: See Oracle’s Terms of Use and Privacy Policy.
- Opt-out: Disable “Offload new uploads” or deactivate the plugin. The plugin does not contact any external service when offloading is disabled., keep description exactly same
