About this plugin
EasyReply connects your WordPress site to the EasyReply support bubble widget. After entering your Site ID, the bubble appears on your site’s frontend. You can control whether it is shown to logged-in users, logged-out users, or both.
When user identification is enabled, logged-in WordPress users are signed with an HMAC-SHA256 hash generated server-side from their email address, so conversations are tied to their account.

What the service is and what it is used for
io) is a customer support platform. js so visitors can start support conversations from your site.
What data is sent and when
- On every public page where the bubble is enabled, the plugin enqueues the EasyReply script from easyreply.io. The script receives your configured Site ID via a site-id attribute on the script tag.
- When user identification is enabled and a visitor is logged in to WordPress, the plugin also passes that user’s email address, display name, and a server-generated HMAC-SHA256 hash of their email to the EasyReply widget via EasyReply.init(). The HMAC secret itself is never sent to the browser.
- Anonymous visitors do not have user identification data sent unless they interact with the support bubble, in which case any data submitted through the widget is handled by EasyReply according to their policies.
