<h3>External Services</h3>
<p>This plugin connects to third-party services to enable Google Drive functionality.</p>
<h3>Option 1: Cloudflare Worker (Recommended)</h3>
<p><strong>Service:</strong> Cloudflare Worker (Google OAuth Proxy)<br />
<strong>Purpose:</strong> Handles Google OAuth authentication securely without storing credentials in WordPress</p>
<p><strong>Data Transmitted:</strong><br />
– OAuth authorization codes<br />
– Temporary session tokens</p>
<p><strong>Service Provider:</strong> Cloudflare, Inc. (Worker script operated by the plugin author)</p>

<p><strong>Privacy Policy:</strong> https://www.cloudflare.com/privacypolicy/</p>
<p><strong>Note:</strong><br />
The Cloudflare Worker acts as a proxy between your WordPress site and Google APIs.<br />
No images are stored on the worker. Files are downloaded directly to your server.</p>

<strong>Purpose:</strong> Access and download files from your Google Drive</p>
