External services
This plugin connects to the Ref247.io API (https://ref247.io/api) to provide its core functionality. Ref247.io is an external affiliate tracking and management platform.
The plugin communicates with the external service in the following scenarios:
– Affiliate Registration: When a user signs up as an affiliate through the [ref247_signup] shortcode, their email address and tracking parameters (such as the referring affiliate ID) are sent to Ref247.io to create a new affiliate account.
– Referral Tracking: When a conversion occurs (e.g., a WooCommerce order is completed or a supported form is submitted), the plugin sends order details (amount, currency, event type) and tracking IDs to Ref247.io to calculate and assign commissions.
– Administrative Synchronization: When an administrator accesses the Ref247 dashboard or settings in WordPress, the plugin fetches organization statistics, active campaigns, and commission summaries to display them in the admin interface.
This service is provided by Ref247.io: Terms of Service, Privacy Policy.
