External services

This plugin requires Mave, an external video hosting, upload, playback, and privacy-friendly analytics service. Mave is provided by Mave and uses the mave.io and video-dns.com domains listed below.

Mave service: https://www.mave.io/ Terms of Use: https://www.mave.io/terms Privacy Policy: https://www.mave.io/privacy

Data is sent to Mave under these conditions:

• When an administrator configures a Mave API key, the WordPress server sends authenticated requests to api.mave.io to list videos and collections. These requests include the API key and list parameters such as page, page size, collection id, and archived filter.
• When an editor uploads a file through the Mave block, WordPress creates a short-lived upload token. The editor’s browser connects to dash.mave.io for upload status and uploads the selected file to upload.mave.io. Uploads send the file, filename, file type, upload id, and short-lived upload token.
• When a Mave block or shortcode is rendered, the browser loads the Mave component module from cdn.video-dns.com and loads thumbnails, video files, and player resources from video-dns.com CDN endpoints.
• The Mave player may send aggregate playback events to metrics.video-dns.com. These events include the embed id and playback data needed for video analytics. Mave analytics do not use cookies, cross-site tracking, advertising identifiers, or viewer profiling.

The Mave API key is stored server-side in WordPress options and is not exposed to public visitors.
