<h3>Privacy Policy</h3>
<p>VMS Elements Payment Gateway with FastSpring for WooCommerce does not collect, store, or send any data to VMS Elements servers. Every outbound network call goes to FastSpring (Bright Market, LLC) — the payment processor you have chosen to integrate — and happens only after a site administrator has configured FastSpring API credentials in the plugin settings.</p>
<h4>Third-party services used by this plugin</h4>
<p>The plugin relies on FastSpring services to sell products and receive payment/subscription events. FastSpring is the payment processor and merchant of record; it is contacted whenever the plugin is configured with FastSpring credentials.</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>FastSpring API</strong> — Sends server-side HTTPS requests to <code>https://api.fastspring.com</code> to test the connection, create checkout sessions, provision products, resend invoices, and confirm order status. Provided by Bright Market, LLC (FastSpring). <a href="https://fastspring.com/terms-use/" rel="nofollow ugc">Terms of Service</a> · <a href="https://fastspring.com/privacy/" rel="nofollow ugc">Privacy Policy</a>.</li>
<li><strong>FastSpring Store Builder Library</strong> — Loads JavaScript from <code>https://sbl.onfastspring.com/</code> in the shopper&#8217;s browser during checkout so the FastSpring popup overlay can render. Provided by Bright Market, LLC (FastSpring). <a href="https://fastspring.com/terms-use/" rel="nofollow ugc">Terms of Service</a> · <a href="https://fastspring.com/privacy/" rel="nofollow ugc">Privacy Policy</a>.</li>
<li><strong>FastSpring webhooks</strong> — Receives inbound HTTPS POST requests from FastSpring when payment, subscription, or refund events occur. Each request is HMAC-SHA256 verified against the webhook secret you configure. Provided by Bright Market, LLC (FastSpring). <a href="https://fastspring.com/terms-use/" rel="nofollow ugc">Terms of Service</a> · <a href="https://fastspring.com/privacy/" rel="nofollow ugc">Privacy Policy</a>.</li>
</ul>
<h4>What data is sent</h4>
<p>For the FastSpring services the plugin sends ONLY:</p>
<ul>
<li>Your FastSpring API username and password (server-to-server HTTPS Basic Auth) when calling the FastSpring API.</li>
<li>Cart line items (product paths, quantities, currency, and — when using the <em>single custom price</em> or <em>per-product override</em> pricing strategy — a price the merchant configured) to open a checkout session.</li>
<li>Customer contact details the shopper enters into the FastSpring popup (email address, name, and billing/shipping fields required by FastSpring to complete the sale).</li>
<li>Order and subscription IDs, plus WordPress order/reference tags, so FastSpring events can be matched back to WooCommerce orders.</li>
</ul>
<p>The plugin does NOT send WordPress user accounts, IP addresses, or any data unrelated to the transaction to FastSpring.</p>
<h4>Data stored locally</h4>
<p>The plugin writes only to the WordPress site database. The following options and custom tables may be created:</p>
<ul>
<li><code>vms_efpg_settings</code> — API credentials, storefront IDs, webhook secrets, and gateway settings.</li>
<li><code>{prefix}vms_efpg_orders</code> — FastSpring order records synced from webhooks (order ID, customer email, totals, currency, status, timestamps).</li>
<li><code>{prefix}vms_efpg_subscriptions</code> — Subscription state received from FastSpring webhook events.</li>
<li><code>{prefix}vms_efpg_events</code> — Raw webhook event log used to make webhook processing idempotent.</li>
<li><code>{prefix}vms_efpg_log</code> — Optional plugin diagnostics log (enable/disable in Settings).</li>
</ul>
<p>You can choose to keep or delete this data on uninstall via the <em>Keep data on uninstall</em> setting.</p>
<h4>Cookies</h4>
<p>The plugin itself does not set any cookies. The FastSpring popup overlay (loaded from <code>sbl.onfastspring.com</code>) may set its own cookies as documented in FastSpring&#8217;s <a href="https://fastspring.com/privacy/" rel="nofollow ugc">Privacy Policy</a>.</p>
<h4>GDPR</h4>
<p>Because the plugin only communicates with FastSpring after you configure FastSpring API credentials, your site becomes a &#8220;data processor&#8221; toward FastSpring only after that opt-in. FastSpring acts as the merchant of record for transactions completed through the popup overlay. We recommend disclosing FastSpring as a payment processor in your site&#8217;s own privacy policy.</p>
<h3>External services</h3>
<p>This plugin connects to FastSpring services to process payments, sync order data, and load the checkout experience. Each service is contacted only after a site administrator has configured FastSpring API credentials in the plugin settings.</p>
