It does not track you or send usage data. Two features are optional and only run when you use them: * **Licensing for CICO Media Pro (Freemius).** If you choose to activate a CICO Media Pro license, the bundled Freemius SDK connects to Freemius (https://freemius. com) to validate the license. It sends your license key, your site URL, the WordPress and PHP versions and the email address you confirm. Nothing is sent unless you start the activation. The “Try Pro free for 14 days” button only opens the Freemius checkout in a new tab; nothing is sent until you submit the form there. Terms: https://freemius.com/terms/ Privacy policy: https://freemius.com/privacy/ * **Send feedback.** The feedback form in the plugin settings sends the message and optional attachments you write to the CICO Media developers by email through your site’s mail system (wp_mail). It runs only when you press send. ## Screenshots [⌊Media Library grid with real image proportions, resolution, file size, ratio and format on every card.⌉⌊Media Library grid with real image proportions, resolution, file size, ratio and format on every card.⌉[ Media Library grid with real image proportions, resolution, file size, ratio and format on every card.

Your media, folders, URLs and workflow stay exactly as WordPress provides them. ### Does it change, move, compress or delete my files? No. CICO Media never modifies media files or attachment URLs. It only changes how media is presented and adds read-only details. ### Does it work in the media picker of the block editor and page builders? Yes. It enhances the native WordPress media picker (featured image, “Add media”, and builders that use it) with the same cards, without adding requests when the picker opens. ### Do I need CICO Media Pro? No. CICO Media works on its own. CICO Media Pro is an optional extension that adds usage intelligence (where each media is used), Media Tags and smart filters. You can find out more at https://cicomediawp.com. ### Where are the settings? Under Media > CICO Media. You can choose which details appear on the cards and the card size. ### What happens to my data if I delete the plugin? Deactivating keeps your settings.
