<h3>Third-party libraries</h3>
<p>This plugin bundles the following third-party libraries (each MIT-licensed, GPL-compatible):</p>
<ul>
<li>Chart.js v4.5.1 — https://github.com/chartjs/Chart.js — MIT License</li>
<li>Swiper v12.2.0 — https://github.com/nolimits4web/swiper — MIT License</li>
</ul>
<h3>External services</h3>
<p>This plugin includes an <strong>optional</strong> Google reCAPTCHA v3 integration for spam protection on the testimonial submission form. It is <strong>disabled by default</strong> and only becomes active when a site administrator enters their own reCAPTCHA v3 Site Key and Secret Key under Testimonials <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Settings.</p>
<p>When enabled:</p>
<ul>
<li>What it is / what it is used for: Google reCAPTCHA v3 scores form submissions to block automated spam, so only the testimonial submission form is affected.</li>
<li>What data is sent and when: when a visitor submits the testimonial form, the reCAPTCHA script (loaded from www.google.com) generates a token in the visitor’s browser; the plugin then sends that token, the site’s reCAPTCHA secret key, and the visitor’s IP address to Google’s verification endpoint (https://www.google.com/recaptcha/api/siteverify) to obtain a spam score. No data is sent when the keys are not configured.</li>
<li>Service provider: Google. Terms of Service: https://policies.google.com/terms — Privacy Policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy — reCAPTCHA terms: https://www.google.com/recaptcha/about/</li>
</ul>
<p>If no reCAPTCHA keys are configured, the plugin does not contact any external service.</p>
