Two checks (contact information, testimonials\/schema) fetch your own site's homepage (via <code>wp_remote_get()<\/code> to your site's own <code>home_url()<\/code>) to compute the Credibility Score shown in your dashboard. No data from this is sent anywhere; the request stays between your server and itself.<\/p>\n\n<p>The <strong>\"Get Full Credibility Audit\"<\/strong> button is a plain outbound link, followed only if you click it. It opens WebAudit AI Tool (<a href=\"https:\/\/webauditaitool.com\/audit\">https:\/\/webauditaitool.com\/audit<\/a> by default, configurable under <strong>Site Credibility \u2192 Settings<\/strong>) in a new tab, passing your homepage URL and Lite Credibility Score as URL query parameters so the destination page can be pre-filled. No request is made to this service unless you click the button.<\/p>\n\n<p>WebAudit AI Tool is operated by the plugin author.
