<li>Data sent: Standard browser request data (IP address, user agent, referrer) and picker query parameters (for example file type, project slug, version).</li>
<li>Frontend behavior: If a gallery uses external Smooth CDN URLs, visitor browsers request those media files directly from Smooth CDN.</li>
