### External services

This plugin connects to the Pixar Labs Subscription & Diagnostics API to add you
to our discount/newsletter list and to collect optional, non-sensitive diagnostic
data that helps us improve the plugin. This service is provided by Pixar Labs.

Service endpoint: https://pixarlabs.com/api/plugin/subscribe

What data is sent and when:

Data is sent only when you actively interact with the plugin. Nothing is transmitted
automatically in the background without that interaction.

 * When you submit the subscribe form (the “Get Discount” admin notice), the plugin
   sends your name and email address.
 * When you click “Allow” on the optional diagnostic-data admin notice, the plugin
   sends non-sensitive environment and usage information: server environment (PHP,
   MySQL, server software and WordPress versions), site language, the list and number
   of active and inactive plugins, site name and URL, whether the site is local 
   or production, and the installed product slug.

No sensitive data is collected.
