 * Hello
 * I have used Filebird for a while, but after an update where it didn’t work very
   well with WooCommerce, I decided to remove it and use an alternative plugin.
 * My problem: today, March 13, 2021, I just saw a Filebird banner trying to convince
   me to try it again. WHY and HOW? The plugin is no longer in use, and not even
   installed!
 * This is a very serious privacy issue I need to solve. I do not wish to see any
   banners or advertisement whatsoever in my WordPress back-end for plugins I do
   not have installed.
 * I’m waiting for some feedback, please.
    Is there a setting where I disable these
   notifications on my end or is it developper-side?
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fprivacy-after-plugin-removal%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hi [@msdesignfoto](https://wordpress.org/support/users/msdesignfoto/) ,
 * Thanks for coming to report this, I am sorry that you had to uninstall FileBird
   for some reasons and for the banner that keeps poping.
 * So, if you have deactivated and deleted FileBird form your site, yet you still
   see that notification, I guess its an issue with server cache or browser cache,
   you need to clean your all your cache and check again.
 * If the issue persist, then you can contact our developers for a Team check:

 * Kind regards,
