External services
This plugin communicates with a single external service: Reco.se Product Review API (https://api.reco.se/).
What the service is and what it’s used for:
– Reco.se is an external product‑review platform. The plugin uses Reco’s API to:
– Create review invites based on your WooCommerce orders.
– Retrieve product ratings, rating distributions, and reviews for display in your store.
– Optionally push store branding (color and logo) for consistent styling in Reco‑hosted experiences.
What data is sent and when:
– Order / invite creation and updates
– When: Whenever order status changes; invites are created for orders that reach the WooCommerce status completed.
– Data (examples; actual values depend on the order and your settings):
– Order: transactionId, orderNr, status, total, currency, dateCreated, dateModified, customerId (billing email), lang, storeId, billing (first name, last name, company, email, phone, postcode, country)
– Line items: id/productId, sku, name, quantity, total, price, brand (from meta or manual setting), image, gtin (if configured), productUrl, variation attributes
– Note: This includes customer PII (name, email, phone, postcode, company if provided) and purchase details.
-
Ratings/reviews retrieval (read‑only)
- When: When storefront widgets or shortcodes request product ratings, distributions, or review lists. Responses are cached in WordPress transients for ~5 minutes.
- Data sent: Identifiers (store and product) plus pagination parameters. No customer PII is sent in these read‑only fetches.
-
Review moderation (visibility)
- When: If you change a review’s visibility via the plugin.
- Data:
