<h3>External Services</h3>
Devflow SEO Toolkit can integrate with optional third-party analytics and site verification services. These services are not used unless a site administrator explicitly enters the relevant ID or verification code in the plugin settings.
<h4>Google Tag Manager</h4>
What it is used for: 
Loads the Google Tag Manager container on the front end of the site when a GTM Container ID is configured.
What data is sent and when: 
When enabled, the visitor’s browser requests JavaScript from <code>https://www.googletagmanager.com/</code> on front-end page loads. Additional data collection depends on the tags that the site owner has configured inside their own Google Tag Manager container.

<h4>Google Analytics 4</h4>
What it is used for: 
Loads the Google Analytics 4 tracking script on the front end of the site when a GA4 Measurement ID is configured.
What data is sent and when: 
When enabled, the visitor’s browser requests JavaScript from <code>https://www.googletagmanager.com/</code> on front-end page loads and sends pageview and browser/device interaction data to Google Analytics according to the site owner’s GA4 configuration.

<h4>Yandex Metrica</h4>
What it is used for: 
Loads the Yandex Metrica tracking script on the front end of the site when a Yandex Metrica ID is configured.
What data is sent and when: 
When enabled, the visitor’s browser requests JavaScript from <code>https://mc.yandex.ru/metrika/tag.js</code> and may request the noscript fallback image from <code>https://mc.yandex.ru/watch/<counter-id></code> on front-end page loads. This sends the configured counter ID and standard browser/page interaction data to Yandex Metrica according to the site owner’s configuration.

<h4>Search Engine Verification Meta Tags</h4>
What it is used for: 
Outputs optional verification meta tags for Google Search Console, Yandex Webmaster, and Bing Webmaster Tools when a site administrator enters the corresponding verification values.
What data is sent and when: 
No remote request is sent by the plugin itself for these features. The plugin only prints verification meta tags into the page HTML so the selected webmaster service can verify site ownership when that service crawls the site.
Services that may read those verification tags:

Google Search Console
