## Description

HL Hunt Payment Gateway for WooCommerce lets you accept Visa, Mastercard, American
Express, Discover, and other major cards directly on your checkout page.

**Key Features:**

 * **PCI Compliant** — Card data is tokenized client-side via PCI Vault. Raw card
   numbers never reach your server.
 * **Simple Setup** — Enter your API keys from the HL Hunt dashboard and you’re 
   ready to go.
 * **Test Mode** — Use test API keys (sk_test_xxx) to test payments without processing
   real charges.
 * **Refunds** — Process full or partial refunds directly from the WooCommerce order
   page.
 * **Webhooks** — Automatic order status updates via secure HMAC-signed webhooks.
 * **HPOS Compatible** — Fully supports WooCommerce High-Performance Order Storage.

### Third-Party Services

This plugin connects to the following external services to process payments:

#### HL Hunt Payment API

When a customer places an order, the plugin sends payment data (amount, currency,
vault token, order metadata) to the HL Hunt API at `https://payments.hlhunt.org`
for charge creation, refunds, and status polling. This communication only occurs
when a customer initiates a checkout or when a merchant processes a refund.

 * [HL Hunt Terms of Service](https://hlhunt.org/legal/terms)
 * [HL Hunt Privacy Policy](https://hlhunt.org/legal/privacy)

#### PCI Vault (by SnapBill, Inc.)

Card data entered by the customer is sent **directly from the customer’s browser**
to PCI Vault (`https://api.pcivault.io`), a PCI DSS Level 1 certified card vault.
Raw card numbers never pass through your WordPress server. The plugin loads a JavaScript
SDK (`hlhunt.js`) from the HL Hunt server to facilitate this secure tokenization.

#### What Data Is Sent Externally

 * **To PCI Vault (from customer’s browser):** Card number, expiry date, CVC, cardholder
   name.
 * **To HL Hunt API (from your server):** Vault token (not raw card data), charge
   amount, currency, order ID, order key, customer IP address, charge descriptions.
 * **No data is collected or sent for analytics, tracking, or advertising purposes.**
