For license activation, license checks and license deactivation, the plugin sends the site URL, plugin slug, plugin version, site locale and the entered or stored license key to the license server. For update checks of licensed addons, the plugin sends the site URL, plugin slug, plugin version, plugin basename, site locale and the stored license key to the license server. Service provider: Expertonaut Terms of service: https://www.expertonaut.de/agb/ Privacy policy: https://www.expertonaut.de/datenschutz/ The bundled UIkit library can request Vimeo oEmbed metadata when a Vimeo URL is rendered through a supported UIkit media component. When that happens, the plugin sends the target Vimeo URL to Vimeo’s oEmbed endpoint so the embed can be resolved.
