-
Will this plugin affect page performance?
-
The tracking script loads asynchronously by appending a
<script>element to the document head on the front end. It is designed to avoid blocking page rendering. -
What happens when the plugin is uninstalled?
-
All plugin data (settings and option flags) is removed from the WordPress database.
-
How does the JavaScript tag work?
-
Service:
https://monitor.fraudblocker.com— loads the Fraud Blocker JavaScript and fallback image endpoints used for click and conversion measurement when you configure a Domain ID.What is used for: Injects
fbt.js(and optionallyctrack.js) on the public site; outputsfbt.gif(and optional conversion pixel) inside<noscript>when JavaScript is disabled.What data is sent and when: Your configured Domain ID is included in script and pixel URLs as the
sidquery parameter. When visitors load pages where tracking runs, their browser requests those assets frommonitor.fraudblocker.comusing normal HTTPS (referrer, IP, and other standard request metadata apply as with any third-party asset). When a site administrator clicks Verify Domain ID in wp-admin, the server performs a one-timeGETrequest to the same host to confirm the Domain ID returns HTTP 200 (result may be cached up to 12 hours).Legal: Terms of Service, Privacy Policy.
