## Description

FocalScore checks up to 25 pages of your site against 396 checks: what stops visitors
becoming customers, what Google and AI assistants such as ChatGPT see, speed, security
and accessibility. You get a score out of 100, the three changes worth the most,
and a full report with every fix in plain English. Free.

How it works:

 1. Open **Tools  FocalScore**.
 2. Check the email for your report, and tick the box: you confirm you’re authorised
    to scan the site and control that email, and agree to send both to FocalScore.
 3. Press **Scan**. When the scan is done, your score and the three biggest fixes appear
    on the same page, and the full report arrives by email.

**Nothing is sent until you agree.** The plugin makes no request of any kind to 
FocalScore before you tick the box and press Scan: no activation ping, no usage 
statistics, no tracking. On the same page you can stop marketing emails (FocalScore
is told at once) or clear the scan from WordPress.

The plugin adds nothing to your public site.

An optional paid AI Advanced Report ($49, one-time) is available on focalscore.com.
Everything in this plugin works without it.

### External services

This plugin connects to the FocalScore service (https://focalscore.com), run by 
Astrolabix LLC, to scan your website. It is needed for the plugin’s only feature:
the scan.

What is sent, and when:

 * Only after you tick the consent box and press Scan: your site’s home address,
   the email address you entered, the consent wording’s version and the time you
   agreed, and the plugin’s version number. These are sent to https://focalscore.
   com/api/plugin/start.
 * Right after that, FocalScore gives the plugin a one-time code, and the plugin
   sends that code to https://focalscore.com/api/plugin/verify. To confirm the request
   came from your site, FocalScore then calls your own site’s address /?rest_route
   =/focalscore/v1/verify with a random challenge, and the plugin answers with a
   proof made from the code (an HMAC), never the code itself. That address is public
   so FocalScore can reach it without a WordPress login; it answers only for the
   few seconds a scan is being started and reveals nothing otherwise.
 * If you press “Stop marketing emails”: a signed token that names only your sign-
   up, sent to https://focalscore.com/api/plugin/unsubscribe.
 * While the scan runs and once it is done, the plugin reads its summary (score,
   grade, top fixes) from https://focalscore.com/api/plugin/result.
 * FocalScore then scans your public pages, as any visitor could see them, and emails
   your report to the address you entered. It also emails website tips and offers
   for its paid services (three emails in the first week, then about weekly); in
   regions where the law requires it (for example the EU, UK and Canada) it asks
   separately first, on the report page. Every email has an unsubscribe link.

## Installation

 1. In your dashboard go to **Plugins  Add New**, search for “FocalScore” and press**
    Install Now**, then **Activate**. Or upload the plugin’s zip under **Plugins  Add
    New  Upload Plugin**.
 2. Open **Tools  FocalScore**.
 3. Check the email for your report, tick the consent box and press **Scan**.

## FAQ

### Is it free?

Yes. The scan, the score and the full report with every fix are free. The optional
AI Advanced Report on focalscore.com costs $49 once.

### What does it send, and when?

Nothing until you tick the consent box and press Scan. Then your site’s address 
and the email you entered. See “External services” above.

### Does it slow my site down?

No. It adds nothing to your public pages and runs only on its own admin page.

### How do I delete my data?

Press “Stop marketing emails” to stop tips and offers, and “Clear this scan from
WordPress” to clear what the plugin stored on your site. Email info@focalscore.com
to have FocalScore delete what it holds. Uninstalling the plugin removes everything
it stored on your site.

## Changelog

#### 1.0.3

 * After a scan that gives a score, the results now end with a small link for leaving
   a review on WordPress.org. It is only a link: no pop-ups, no reminders, and nothing
   is sent.

#### 1.0.2

 * The check count is now 396.
 * Added installation steps to this readme.
 * The verification address no longer shows the one-time code: it answers FocalScore’s
   random challenge with a proof, and requires a valid challenge.

#### 1.0.1

 * Clearer consent: tips and offers named with how often they come, an authority
   statement and the Terms. In the EU, UK, Canada and similar regions FocalScore
   asks separately before sending tips and offers.
 * “Stop marketing emails” tells FocalScore directly; “Clear this scan from WordPress”
   says what it does and doesn’t do.

#### 1.0.0

 * First release.
