### Privacy Policy

Data Collection: This plugin does not collect, store, or transmit any personal data

API Requests: When a verse tooltip is displayed, the plugin fetches verse text from
primebible.com’s API. These requests include:
 – The Bible reference (e.g., “John
3:16”) – The requested translation (e.g., “KJV”)

No Tracking: PrimeBible does not log IP addresses, track user behavior, or use cookies
from these API requests.

Optional Analytics: If you enable the analytics setting, the plugin will fire a 
Google Analytics event when a tooltip is opened (if GA is already installed on your
site). This is disabled by default.

Third-Party Services: The plugin connects to primebible.com’s API to fetch verse
text. No other third-party services are used.
