External Services
This plugin connects to external 3rd-party services provided by Google to enable Google Drive integration for WooCommerce downloadable products.
Google OAuth 2.0 API
- What the service is and what it is used for: Securely authenticates the store administrator’s Google account via OAuth 2.0 and generates API access and refresh tokens.
- What data is sent and when:
- When connecting your Google account in plugin settings, your OAuth Client ID, Client Secret, authorization code, and redirect URI are transmitted to Google’s token endpoint ( https://oauth2.googleapis.com/token ) to exchange for API access/refresh tokens.
- When viewing connection status, basic user profile information (email address and display name) is retrieved from https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v2/userinfo to display the connected account in the admin dashboard.
- When disconnecting your account, a revocation request is sent to https://oauth2.googleapis.com/revoke to invalidate tokens.
