External services
This plugin connects to the SyncRanker SaaS platform (https://syncranker.com) to synchronize content and manage SEO campaigns from the cloud.
When an Administrator clicks the “Connect” button, the plugin securely sends the site URL and a newly generated Application Password to the SyncRanker app (https://app.syncranker.com) to establish an authorized connection. No personal user data, emails, or primary passwords are ever sent or tracked.
