<h3>External Services</h3>
<p>This plugin relies on external services for support portal functionality and optional anti-bot verification.</p>
<h4>Chatwoot</h4>
<p>This plugin connects to a Chatwoot instance to provide support ticket, livechat, contact sync, and webhook functionality. The Chatwoot base URL is configured by the site owner in plugin settings and can point to either a self-hosted Chatwoot server or the Chatwoot cloud service.</p>
<ul>
<li>What it is: Chatwoot is an open-source customer support platform. This plugin uses the Chatwoot REST API to sync contacts, create tickets, post replies, and receive webhook events.</li>
<li>Data sent: contact identity and profile data (name, email, phone, optional custom attributes), conversation and ticket metadata, message content, and optional file attachments.</li>
<li>When data is sent: when loading the livechat widget/embed, creating support tickets, replying to tickets, syncing contacts, loading debug/API diagnostics, and processing webhook events.</li>
<li>Browser storage: when the livechat widget or embed is enabled, Chatwoot and optional identity/session-reset flows may use browser cookies and local/session storage to maintain chat session state.</li>
<li>Service URL: Determined by the Base URL configured in plugin settings (e.g. https://app.chatwoot.com/ for Chatwoot cloud, or a custom domain for self-hosted deployments).</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>If using Chatwoot cloud (app.chatwoot.com):</strong></p>

<p><strong>If using a self-hosted Chatwoot instance:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>The data controller is the operator of that server. The site owner is responsible for ensuring appropriate terms and privacy policies are in place for their own Chatwoot deployment. Chatwoot’s privacy policy and terms of service do not automatically apply to self-hosted instances.</li>
<li>Chatwoot is open-source (MIT licensed): https://github.com/chatwoot/chatwoot</li>
</ul>
<h4>hCaptcha (optional)</h4>
<p>This plugin optionally integrates hCaptcha for anti-spam/bot protection on public ticket and contact intake forms.</p>
<ul>
<li>What it is: hCaptcha is a third-party CAPTCHA service. It is only loaded when hCaptcha is explicitly enabled in plugin settings.</li>
<li>Data sent: a challenge response token and visitor IP address (<code>remoteip</code>) for server-side verification, and the hCaptcha widget JavaScript for browser-side challenge rendering.</li>
<li>When data is sent: only when hCaptcha is enabled in plugin settings AND a visitor submits a public form that requires CAPTCHA verification.</li>
<li>Service URL: https://www.hcaptcha.com/</li>
<li>Terms of service: https://www.hcaptcha.com/terms.html</li>
<li>Privacy policy: https://www.hcaptcha.com/privacy.html</li>
