## Description

Store Compass Connector is the official WooCommerce connector for Store Compass,
a commerce
 decision-support service developed and operated by Digitribe Media.

The connector adds Store Compass entry points to wp-admin and securely connects 
an authorized
 WooCommerce store to the hosted Store Compass service. Store Compass
performs the commerce analysis, evidence evaluation, weekly recommendations, action
guidance, recommendation history, and outcome measurement on its hosted service.

Once connected, Store Compass menu items in wp-admin securely open the corresponding
hosted Store
 Compass dashboard view. The plugin also displays connection status
and can display the current weekly recommendation in WordPress admin when that data
is available from the service.

#### What this plugin does

 * Adds Store Compass navigation to wp-admin – Home, Weekly Brief, Actions, Results,
   Weekly History,
    and Settings.
 * Uses WooCommerce’s built-in application authorization screen. The merchant reviews
   and approves
    read-only access in their own WordPress admin; Store Compass never
   receives the WordPress administrator password.
 * Connects to the hosted Store Compass service to retrieve connection status, recommendations,
   and
    secure dashboard access.
 * Keeps storefront pages untouched: the connector registers no Store Compass scripts
   or styles on
    customer-facing pages.

#### Local data stored by this plugin

The WordPress plugin stores one plugin-generated connection token in wp_options 
and a short-lived
 connection-status transient. It does not store WooCommerce orders,
products, billing details, shipping details, or customer records in the WordPress
plugin itself.

### External services

Store Compass Connector relies on the Store Compass hosted service operated by Digitribe
Media.
 The hosted service is required for the connector’s core functionality; the
recommendation engine and merchant dashboard do not run locally inside this WordPress
plugin.

#### Data sent directly by the WordPress connector

When an authorized administrator opens Store Compass in wp-admin, the connector 
may send the
 site hostname and its plugin-generated connection token to the Store
Compass status API. The raw plugin token is sent only in an Authorization header;
Store Compass stores only a SHA-256 hash of that plugin token.

When an administrator starts or regenerates a connection, the connector sends the
site’s URL and
 a SHA-256 hash of its plugin token to the Store Compass connection
flow. The merchant is then redirected to WooCommerce’s own authorization screen.

When a connected merchant opens a Store Compass dashboard section, the plugin retrieves
a signed
 dashboard link from Store Compass and redirects the administrator to the
corresponding hosted Store Compass dashboard view.

#### WooCommerce data accessed by the Store Compass hosted service

If the merchant approves WooCommerce’s authorization screen, WooCommerce sends Store
Compass a
 read-only Consumer Key and Consumer Secret. Store Compass verifies those
credentials and uses them to read the WooCommerce REST API resources needed for 
decision support.

The current integration reads WooCommerce orders and products. Store Compass uses
commerce fields
 such as order identifiers, statuses, dates, currency, order totals,
discounts, line-item counts, product names, product status, categories, descriptions,
images, SKU, price, and stock quantity to calculate commerce metrics and recommendations.

WooCommerce order API responses can include billing, shipping and other customer-
identifying
 information by default. Store Compass deliberately excludes customer
names, billing and shipping addresses, email addresses, phone numbers, customer 
IDs and customer IP addresses from its canonical decision data and does not create
per-customer records for recommendation processing.

Store Compass does not automatically change products, orders, prices, inventory 
or other store
 settings through this WooCommerce connection. The WooCommerce authorization
scope is read-only.

service
 terms, see the Privacy Policy and Terms of Service links above.

## Installation

 1. Install and activate WooCommerce.
 2. Install and activate Store Compass Connector.
 3. Open Store Compass from the WordPress admin menu and click “Connect to Store Compass”.
 4. Review the WooCommerce authorization screen and approve read-only access if you
    want to connect.

## FAQ

### Does this slow down my storefront?

The connector is designed to be admin-only. Store Compass does not enqueue its plugin
assets on
 customer-facing storefront pages.

### Does Store Compass receive my WordPress password?

No. Connection approval happens through WooCommerce’s built-in application authorization
flow.
 Store Compass receives the WooCommerce API credentials created by that flow,
not the merchant’s WordPress password.

### What permissions does Store Compass request from WooCommerce?

Read-only access. Store Compass uses it to retrieve the commerce information needed
to calculate
 metrics and recommendations. It does not use this connection to automatically
edit the store.

### Does the WordPress plugin store my orders or customer data locally?

No. The connector stores only its own connection token and a temporary connection-
status cache in
 WordPress. Commerce analysis happens on the hosted Store Compass
service as described in the External services section above.

### What happens if I delete the plugin?

Deleting the plugin removes the connector’s local token and status cache from WordPress.
Removing
 the WordPress plugin is separate from disconnecting the hosted Store Compass
connection. To stop Store Compass from using an active WooCommerce API credential,
disconnect/revoke the connection through the applicable Store Compass or WooCommerce
connection controls.
