## Description

**turbometrics** measures the real performance of your
 WordPress website from your
visitors’ perspective — not from a lab environment.

While synthetic tools (like Lighthouse or PageSpeed Insights)
 measure your site
under controlled conditions, turbometrics shows what your real visitors experience:
on their devices, with their internet connection, from their region.

#### What the plugin does

 * Automatically embeds the turbometrics tracking script
    in the `<head>` of every
   page
 * Measures LCP, CLS, INP, FCP and TTFB from your real visitors
 * Optionally excludes WordPress administrators from tracking
 * Marks WooCommerce checkout pages separately for precise analysis
 * Shows Core Web Vitals and all 5 metrics directly in the
    WordPress dashboard 
   widget

#### Core Web Vitals

Google evaluates websites based on three signals:

 * **LCP** (Largest Contentful Paint) — loading time of main content
 * **CLS** (Cumulative Layout Shift) — visual stability during load
 * **INP** (Interaction to Next Paint) — response time to clicks

turbometrics shows you whether your site meets these thresholds
 for real visitors—
and alerts you when it does not.

#### Privacy

 * No cookies
 * No personal data collected
 * IP addresses are anonymized after country detection
 * GDPR-compliant when properly declared in your privacy policy

#### Requirements

js`) and sends performance data to `https://turbometrics.de/api/tm`.

By using this plugin, you agree to the
 [Privacy Policy](https://turbometrics.de/datenschutz)

## FAQ

### Do I need a turbometrics account?

Yes. You need at least a Starter plan with Live Data feature.
 A free trial is available.

### Are cookies used?

No. turbometrics works completely without cookies.

### Is the plugin GDPR-compliant?

turbometrics collects only anonymized technical performance data.
 IP addresses 
are anonymized after country detection. No personal data is stored. We recommend
mentioning the use of turbometrics in your website’s privacy policy. A ready-made
privacy policy text is available in the turbometrics dashboard.

### Does it work with WooCommerce?

Yes. When WooCommerce is active, checkout pages can be marked
 separately for more
precise performance analysis.

### Are administrators tracked?

By default, no. Logged-in administrators are excluded from
 tracking to avoid skewing
measurement data. This option can be disabled in the settings.

### What happens to my data when I uninstall the plugin?

When uninstalling, all local WordPress options and caches
 are deleted. Data in 
your turbometrics account remains and can be deleted there.
