Privacy

This plugin does not collect, store, or transmit any personal data from your site or its visitors. No cookies, analytics, or tracking mechanisms are used.

The only data transmission occurs when a visitor voluntarily clicks a share button, which opens their browser to the chosen social network's share URL. This is a standard browser navigation and does not involve the plugin sending data in the background.
