<h3>External services</h3>
<p>This plugin connects to the AnswerMage API, a third-party service operated by AnswerMage. The API is required for the plugin to function.</p>
<p><strong>What it does:</strong> The AnswerMage API serves the chat widget script and handles all chatbot conversations on your site.</p>
<p><strong>What data is sent and when:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>When the plugin is connected, your site URL is sent to AnswerMage to associate your WordPress site with your AnswerMage account.</li>
<li>When a visitor uses the chat widget, their questions are sent to the AnswerMage API to generate answers. No visitor PII (names, email addresses, etc.) is collected by the plugin itself.</li>
<li>The widget script (<code>answermage.min.js</code>) is loaded from <code>https://api.answermage.com</code> on every page of your site where the plugin is active.</li>

implementation chooses to do so. The plugin does not collect personal<br />
