External services

This plugin can contact external services in three cases.

1. Public checksum verification
   By default, the plugin requests WordPress.org plugin and theme checksum metadata directly from WordPress.org.

If the site owner explicitly enables the optional FirePhage checksum cache in Scanner Settings or during first-run setup, the plugin requests the same checksum metadata from FirePhage first and then falls back to WordPress.org if needed. These requests send only the package type, slug, and version needed for checksum verification.

When you manually choose Compare or Restore for an official WordPress.org checksum mismatch, the plugin may request the matching reference file through FirePhage so it can show a file comparison or restore the official file you selected. This happens only after a user action and is not part of normal background scanning.

FirePhage is used as a retrieval layer for official WordPress.org reference files; the plugin does not execute arbitrary remote code.

1. Optional free FirePhage signature token
   If the site owner explicitly requests a free FirePhage signature token, the plugin sends the chosen email address, site URL details, plugin version, and optional marketing-consent preference to FirePhage so the token can be emailed and remote signature updates can be enabled.

1. Optional paid FirePhage connection
   If the site owner explicitly connects the plugin to FirePhage, the plugin sends site connection details and security reports to FirePhage so dashboard sync and alerting can work.
