Privacy

This plugin does not contact Blockrush or any other external service. It stores license keys, customer user IDs and email addresses, WooCommerce order and product IDs, license status and expiry, and activated site URLs in the site’s WordPress database. Uninstalling retains this data by default to prevent accidental loss; the included documentation explains the opt-in deletion constant.

Payment processing remains the responsibility of WooCommerce and the selected gateway.

Security
