External services
FlowMail Campaigns does not send operational data to FlowPress or to a fixed external API.
By default, emails are sent through WordPress using wp_mail(), which uses the site’s own mail configuration. If the site administrator enables the optional custom SMTP setting, outgoing email is sent to the SMTP server entered by that administrator when an email is sent. Depending on the email being sent, this can include recipient email addresses, sender details, subject lines, message content, and technical email headers.
The SMTP server is not supplied by FlowMail Campaigns and is not required for the plugin to work. Site administrators who enter their own SMTP server details should review the terms and privacy policy for that chosen mail provider.
The plugin also includes an admin-only WP-Cron loopback diagnostic. When an administrator runs that diagnostic, the site sends a request to its own wp-cron.php URL to confirm that scheduled tasks can run. No FlowPress service is contacted for this check.
The Reviews screen includes a manual Google-style review badge and a copy/paste importer for reviews that an administrator chooses to copy from their public Google review page. This feature does not contact Google, does not scrape Google, and does not use a Google API key.
