This plugin is developed by Vantigo Systems. It is an independent integration and is not affiliated with or endorsed by WooCommerce or the optional sharing-service providers.
External services
Social sharing is optional and each channel can be disabled in settings. The plugin loads its JavaScript, CSS, and QR-code library from the local website. It does not load social SDKs or contact social services merely because a page is viewed.
Clicking a sharing button opens the provider’s website or app with the information below. The provider receives that information when the destination opens, even if the shopper does not finish posting. The provider may also receive ordinary connection information such as the visitor’s IP address, browser information, and its own cookies.
The plugin does not automatically send the shopper’s name, email, billing details, or payment details to these providers.

Email, SMS, and native device sharing
Email and SMS buttons open the visitor’s configured apps with the cart URL and a message; email also includes a subject containing the website name. Native sharing passes the website name and cart URL to the device’s share sheet. The visitor chooses the app and recipient.
The plugin does not select a fixed email/SMS provider or send those messages itself. Any provider chosen by the visitor has its own terms and privacy policy.
QR codes and clipboard
QR codes are generated locally and the clipboard button copies the URL locally. No third-party QR or clipboard service is contacted.
Data storage and privacy
When a sharing widget is displayed, a nonce-protected request saves the shareable WooCommerce cart session in this site’s database. The record contains cart items (including variation and custom cart-item metadata), totals, coupon data, timestamps, link expiry, activity counters, and the current WordPress user ID for logged-in shoppers. A WooCommerce session value is also stored to protect guest requests.
No analytics data is sent to Vantigo Systems.
Anyone who receives a valid shared-cart URL can load the shared items and coupons until it expires. Store owners should review custom cart-item data added by other extensions before enabling sharing; do not put sensitive information in shareable cart metadata.
Expired records are removed by a daily WordPress cron job when WordPress cron executes. Records with no expiry remain until removed. Reset Analytics Data deletes all saved shared-cart records and invalidates their links.
Deactivation stops cleanup and retains settings and records.
