External Services

WhatsApp (Meta)

When a visitor submits the enquiry form, BeesChat saves the submitted fields to the WordPress database and then opens a WhatsApp wa.me link with a prefilled message. Form field values, any configured message introduction, and selected campaign/page attribution are included in that link. The visitor chooses whether to send the message. WhatsApp may process the information when its website or application opens.

Google Analytics (optional)

When the site administrator configures a GA4 Measurement ID, BeesChat can load Google’s gtag.js library from googletagmanager.com and transmit widget-open, form-submitted and lead-saved events. The event stream and request metadata may be processed by Google. The plugin also supports GTM dataLayer events. Administrators must manage any required visitor consent.

Installation telemetry (optional)

Disabled by default. Only if an administrator opts in and supplies an HTTPS collection endpoint, the plugin transmits a randomly generated installation identifier, plugin version, event type and UTC timestamp to the administrator-configured endpoint. That endpoint’s provider and applicable policies depend on the address supplied by the administrator. The endpoint operator may receive network metadata such as IP address. Disabling telemetry clears the locally stored identifier. No submitted lead data is intentionally included.

Cloudflare (optional)

Country targeting may use the CF-IPCountry HTTP header supplied by the site’s Cloudflare configuration. BeesChat does not initiate a separate Cloudflare API request.

Source Code and Build Instructions

BeesChat ships with the human-readable source for its frontend and admin assets.
JavaScript source files are included directly in assets/admin.js,
assets/form.js, assets/widget.js, and assets/leads-admin.js.
CSS source files are included directly in assets/admin.css and assets/form.css.
No bundled or proprietary third-party JavaScript libraries are included,
and no compiler, bundler or minification step is required to build the plugin.
The JavaScript and CSS files in the plugin ZIP are the editable source files
used by WordPress at runtime. You can review and modify them directly.

Privacy

BeesChat stores information submitted through the form in the site’s WordPress database, including customer-provided fields, campaign parameters, referring page and landing-page information. When the visitor opens WhatsApp, the selected details are included in a prefilled message that the visitor can choose to send. The site administrator is responsible for a suitable privacy notice, retention rules, and lawful collection of personal data.

If the site administrator enters a GA4 Measurement ID or enables analytics through Google Tag Manager, event data may be sent to Google according to the site’s configured analytics settings. Administrators should obtain any legally required consent before enabling such analytics.

Optional installation analytics are disabled by default. If an administrator explicitly opts in and enters an HTTPS collector endpoint, BeesChat may send an installation identifier, plugin version, event type and UTC time to that endpoint. This telemetry does not intentionally include submitted lead contents or campaign parameters. The receiving server may see network metadata such as the source IP address. Turning off telemetry stops subsequent transmissions and clears the locally saved identifier.

Email Notifications

Administrators can opt in to email notifications for newly saved leads. Configure up to 10 recipients and customize the subject in Leads and Analytics. Each notification contains submitted fields, campaign attribution, landing and referral details. Uses wp_mail; delivery depends on the site’s mail configuration. A test email button is provided.
