Used as a fallback source for bibliographic data and cover images. Search terms, ISBNs, and book titles may be sent to Open Library. The service is operated by the Internet Archive. Terms: https://archive.org/about/terms.php — Privacy policy: https://archive.org/about/terms.php#privacy
Amazon Creators API
Used only after the administrator configures valid credentials. ASINs, ISBNs, titles, and product requests may be sent to Amazon to retrieve product information and create supported affiliate links.

Wikimedia services
Wikidata, Wikipedia, and Wikimedia Commons may be queried to enrich author profiles with biographical information and properly attributed images.

The plugin does not send visitor personal data to its bibliographic services by default. Administrators should review the external-service terms and privacy policies and disclose enabled integrations as required for their site and jurisdiction.
