Security
SVG Support prioritizes security with automatic sanitization and role-based restrictions. Only trusted users should have upload permissions. Configure settings to balance functionality and security.
External Services
SVG Support does not send your data anywhere on its own — everything it does (uploads, sanitization, inline rendering) happens entirely on your own site.
The one exception is opt-in: the plugin’s settings screen offers a sign-up form for the SVG Support Pro waitlist. com), the newsletter service used for SVG Support announcements. Nothing is transmitted if you never use the form, no information is collected in the background, and every email includes a one-click unsubscribe.
