<h3>External services</h3>
This plugin optionally connects to the following third-party services when the corresponding payment gateway is enabled by the site administrator.
<h4>Stripe</h4>
When the Stripe payment gateway is enabled and a customer submits a booking, the plugin communicates with:
<ul>
<li>Stripe API (<code>https://api.stripe.com</code>) — to create a PaymentIntent and process the card payment. Data sent includes the booking amount, currency, and a booking reference metadata string. No personal customer data (name, email, address) is sent to the Stripe API directly by this plugin.</li>
<li>Stripe.js (<code>https://js.stripe.com/v3/</code>) — the official Stripe JavaScript library, loaded on any page containing the booking form when Stripe is enabled. This library handles secure card field rendering in the customer’s browser. Stripe may collect browser and device information as described in their privacy policy.</li>
</ul>
Stripe Terms of Service: https://stripe.com/legal/ssa 
Stripe Privacy Policy: https://stripe.com/privacy
<h4>PayPal</h4>
When the PayPal payment gateway is enabled and a customer chooses PayPal at checkout, the plugin communicates with:
<ul>
<li>PayPal Orders API — <code>https://api-m.paypal.com</code> (live) or <code>https://api-m.sandbox.paypal.com</code> (sandbox/test mode) — to create a PayPal order and capture the payment. Data sent includes the booking amount, currency, and a booking reference description.</li>
</ul>
PayPal Terms of Service: https://www.paypal.com/legalhub/useragreement-full 
PayPal Privacy Policy: https://www.paypal.com/legalhub/privacy-full
<h4>No data is sent when gateways are disabled</h4>
Bank Transfer (the default gateway) does not connect to any external service. Stripe and PayPal connections are only established when those gateways are explicitly enabled in Webase Booking Manager → Settings → Payment Gateways.
