Privacy
RegiVigil – Spam & Fake Account Protection may store registration event information including email address, username, spam score, detection reasons, source, timestamp and an anonymized or full IP address depending on settings. The default is IP anonymization. Log retention is configurable.
No registration data is transmitted to an external anti-spam service. Optional scan reports are sent only when enabled by an administrator and only to the configured email address.
The plugin registers suggested privacy-policy content and integrates with the WordPress personal-data exporter and eraser tools.
