<h3>External services</h3>
<p>This plugin connects to external services to provide certain features:</p>
<h4>OCR.space API</h4>
<p>The plugin uses OCR.space’s API (powered by Tesseract OCR) to extract text from review screenshots when using the OCR import feature. This service is only used when you explicitly choose to import a review via the OCR helper workflow.</p>
<p><strong>What data is sent:</strong><br />
* Base64-encoded image data (screenshots you upload through the WordPress media library)<br />
* Image metadata (MIME type, language preference)</p>
<p><strong>When data is sent:</strong><br />
* Only when you use the OCR import feature in the admin area<br />
* Images are sent immediately when you click “Extract Text” during the OCR import process<br />
* No data is sent automatically or in the background</p>
<p><strong>Service provider:</strong><br />
* OCR.space (https://ocr.space/)<br />
* Terms of Service: https://ocr.space/ocrapi/TermsOfService<br />
* Privacy Policy: https://ocr.space/ocrapi/PrivacyPolicy</p>
<p><strong>Note:</strong> The plugin uses OCR.space’s free API tier by default. You can optionally configure your own API key in the plugin settings if you have an OCR.space account.</p>
