<p>Adbot helps you connect and maintain your marketing measurement stack — Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics 4, Google Ads, and Google Search Console — from a single WordPress admin screen.</p>
<p>Features:</p>
<ul>
<li>Guided onboarding wizard.</li>
<li>Google OAuth connection to your Google marketing accounts.</li>
<li>One-click Google Tag Manager container injection (head + body snippet) with an admin-exclusion toggle.</li>
<li>Automated audit of your GTM container (tags, triggers, gaps, a tracking health score).</li>
<li>Optional paid audit-apply feature via Paystack.</li>
</ul>
<h4>External Services</h4>
<p>This plugin sends data to third-party services to provide its functionality. <strong>No external requests are made until you explicitly start the connection flow in the plugin UI.</strong> The plugin stores an opt-in flag (<code>adbot_consent_given</code>) and refuses to contact any external service until the flag is true.</p>
<p>The plugin communicates <strong>only</strong> with the Adbot Tracking backend service (<code>https://adbot-tracking-platform.vercel.app</code>). The same API will later be served from <code>https://tracking.adbot.co.za</code> when DNS is migrated; until then the plugin uses the Vercel deployment URL. The Adbot backend then relays authorized requests to the following services on your behalf:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Adbot Tracking backend</strong> (<code>https://adbot-tracking-platform.vercel.app/api/wp</code>) — the proxy/service your WordPress site talks to. Terms & privacy: https://adbot.co.za</li>
<li><strong>Google OAuth and Google APIs</strong> (called server-side by the Adbot backend) — authenticates and accesses the Google services you choose to connect (Tag Manager, Analytics, Ads, Search Console). Terms: https://policies.google.com/terms · Privacy: https://policies.google.com/privacy</li>
<li><strong>Supabase</strong> (called server-side by the Adbot backend) — stores the account linkage and encrypted OAuth tokens. Terms: https://supabase.com/terms · Privacy: https://supabase.com/privacy</li>
<li><strong>Paystack</strong> (called server-side by the Adbot backend) — processes payments if you enable the paid audit-apply feature. Terms: https://paystack.com/za/terms · Privacy: https://paystack.com/za/terms?q=/privacy</li>
</ul>
<p>Data sent from your WordPress site to the Adbot backend: site URL, site name, WordPress version, admin email (when the site first registers with the backend), and — per feature — the Google container you choose, the audit parameters you run, and the payment reference you verify. The WordPress site never sees, stores, or transmits your Google OAuth tokens directly; those live on the Adbot backend and are encrypted at rest.</p>
