No data is sent anywhere before you enter your own Google Cloud credentials and click \"Connect Google Drive\".<\/p>\n\n Your backup files go directly from your server to your own Google Drive. They never pass through, and are never stored on, any BundleWP server. Google's handling of the data is covered by the Google Privacy Policy<\/a> and the Google Terms of Service<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n In Yes, always. The database dump is generated in PHP using WordPress's own database connection \u2014 no mysqldump, shell access or extra server tools are needed.<\/p><\/dd>\n So that backups go to YOUR Google Drive under YOUR control. The plugin does not come with any built-in Google account, and your files never pass through our servers. Creating the credentials is free and takes about five minutes; the Settings page walks you through every step.<\/p><\/dd>\n Only Restore first creates a safety backup of your current site (labelled \"Pre-restore safety\"), then puts the files back into wp-content and imports the database. You must tick an \"I understand\" box and confirm before it starts. If anything looks wrong afterwards, restore the safety backup to go back.<\/p><\/dd>\n Uninstalling removes the plugin's settings, its Google tokens and its backup list \u2014 but it deliberately does NOT delete your backup files. They stay in Backups are built file-by-file and the database is read in small chunks, so memory use stays low, and the plugin asks PHP for more time where the server allows it. On very large sites or strict shared hosting, a single run can still hit your host's time limit \u2014 in that case, exclude uploads in Settings or ask your host for a higher limit.<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>\n\n\n\n
