The plugin connects to only ONE of the above AI providers at a time, based on the
administrator’s selection. No data is sent to any provider unless the administrator
explicitly configures the API key.

**9. URL Import** (for knowledge base — optional)
 When an administrator imports
a webpage URL into the knowledge base, the plugin makes an HTTP request to the specified
URL to fetch its content. Only URLs explicitly provided by the administrator are
fetched.

**10. Webhook URL** (admin-configurable — optional)
 When the site administrator
configures a webhook URL, lead submission data (name, email, phone, message) is 
sent as a JSON POST to the configured external URL. Only activated when explicitly
configured by the administrator.

All API keys are encrypted using AES-256-CBC before storage in the WordPress database.
No visitor data is shared with external services beyond what is described above.
