At ShutterPress, we take your privacy seriously. The plugin is designed to operate efficiently on your own WordPress site, and it only collects the minimal data required to ensure functionality, updates, and optional analytics.
1. Data Stored on Your Site
ShutterPress stores the following data within your WordPress database:
- Gallery data: Image titles, captions, file paths, and gallery settings you configure.
- Template settings: Layout, colour, and display options saved as part of the gallery template system.
- WooCommerce data: If you sell prints or downloads, purchase information is handled entirely by WooCommerce, not ShutterPress.
All of this data remains on your own website server and is not sent to ShutterPress or any third party.
