 * Hello [@shopscan](https://wordpress.org/support/users/shopscan/) ,
 * The plugin itself is free and always available here on WordPress.org. It works
   as an application that connects a website to the CleanTalk cloud service. The
   service itself is paid because maintaining global spam protection requires servers,
   updates, and support.
 * Our approach is to share these costs fairly among all users, which allows us 
   to keep the price very low per website compared to many other solutions. This
   way, everyone benefits from reliable protection without hidden costs, and the
   plugin remains free for anyone to use or even build their own integration.
 * If you’d like, you can find all the details about our pricing here:
