## Description

Trellink cloaks and tracks affiliate links, with built-in link-health monitoring
and click analytics.

**Free features:**

 * Unlimited cloaked links with 301/302/307 redirect types
 * Automatic broken-link checker, twice a day, with a manual “check now” button
 * Click analytics with configurable bot-filtering and self-click exclusion
 * Device targeting: send mobile visitors to a different URL than desktop
 * CSV import and export, no row limits

**Pro (optional):** geo-redirects, an autolinker for keyword-to-link automation,
advanced analytics (referrer cohorts, conversion tracking), and multi-site licensing
for agencies.

### External Services

This plugin connects to the Lemon Squeezy API to activate and validate Pro license
keys. This is only used if you enter a Pro license key in Settings — the free tier
never contacts this service.

 * **What the service is and what it’s used for:** Lemon Squeezy is a payment and
   licensing provider. When you enter a Pro license key, the plugin sends that key
   to Lemon Squeezy to confirm it is valid and activate Pro features on your site.
   The plugin also re-checks the key’s validity automatically once a week, so that
   a cancelled subscription loses Pro access without you needing to do anything 
   manually.
 * **What data is sent and when:** the license key you entered, and your site’s 
   home URL (`home_url()`), sent when you click “Activate” and again during the 
   weekly automatic re-check.
 * **Service links:** [Terms of Service](https://www.lemonsqueezy.com/terms), [Privacy Policy](https://www.lemonsqueezy.com/privacy)

## Installation

    WordPress plugins screen directly.
 2. Activate the plugin.
 3. Go to Trellink in your admin menu and create your first link.

## FAQ

### How does the broken-link checker work?

A scheduled task checks every link’s target URL twice a day and flags anything returning
an error or an unreachable response. You can also trigger a check manually at any
time.

### How does click tracking handle bots and my own clicks?

Bot filtering and self-click exclusion can be toggled in Settings. When enabled,
the dashboard shows a filtered “clean” count alongside the raw count.

### Does this plugin track visitors?

The plugin records a click (timestamp, device type, browser, referrer, and a one-
way hash of the visitor’s IP address) each time someone follows one of your cloaked
links, so you can see basic usage stats for your own links. This data stays in your
own WordPress database — it is not sent to any external service. IP addresses are
hashed with a secret generated and stored by the plugin itself (not reused from 
WordPress core) before being stored; the raw IP address is never saved.
