Optional, separately installed site connection for Version Info.

== Description ==

Start setup at https://app.versioninfoplugin.com/connect/wordpress/connection. This separate integration is installed only when you choose it. It is not bundled with, and does not require, the Version Info WordPress plugin. Installing or activating it does not start sharing.

An administrator must deliberately select Connect this site and share version metadata in Settings → Version Info Connection and approve the matching code at app.versioninfoplugin.com. The first report and hourly WordPress scheduled job begin only after approval. WordPress scheduling depends on site traffic.

== External service and consent ==

The service is operated by Brand on Fire LLC, doing business as Gaucho Plugins. Before connecting, read https://app.versioninfoplugin.com/privacy and https://app.versioninfoplugin.com/terms.

After approval, reports sent over HTTPS to app.versioninfoplugin.com contain WordPress, PHP and available PHP extension versions; database software version metadata; reported web-server software when available; installed plugin/theme names and versions; the site hostname as a default label; source coverage; sender version; sequence; and timestamps. Reports exclude application content, database records, logs, credentials, and absolute filesystem paths. The latest inventory is retained while connected, with seven days of observed changes. Requested reports are shared with OpenAI when you authorize ChatGPT, or with Anthropic when you authorize Claude.

Stop sharing removes this integration's local credential and scheduled task. To revoke access and delete active cloud inventory/history, follow the separate disconnect confirmation in Version Info. Uninstalling removes local connection state. Server-side backups follow the service privacy policy.

Multisite connections are not supported. Converting a connected site to multisite removes this integration's local connection and scheduled job.
