<h3>External services</h3>
This plugin connects to third-party Email Marketing Service (EMS) APIs to synchronize subscriber data when an EMS integration is configured. The plugin only connects to these services when users explicitly configure their API credentials in the plugin settings.
When an EMS connection is configured, the plugin sends subscriber information (email address and optional first name) to the selected email marketing service each time a user submits a subscription form.
