What data is shared?
During install, Security Ninja may ask you to allow Freemius to receive limited site and license data. Freemius handles payments, licensing, and update checks for the plugin.
Freemius describes it roughly like this: the plugin periodically sends data to freemius.com to check for security and feature updates, and to verify that your license is valid.
Click What permissions are being granted on that screen for the full list Freemius shows at install time.
Why this data exists
The details help us see which WordPress, PHP, and plugin versions people run, which makes bugs easier to reproduce. Licensing also needs Freemius so Pro keys can be verified.
Can I skip it?
On Free, click Skip if you do not want optional anonymous tracking.
Skipping can disable some in-plugin help or opt-in features. The rest of the plugin still runs.
Pro users
If you install Pro and want Pro features, license verification with Freemius is required. You cannot skip that check and still run a validated Pro license.
