    It seems to be some unathorized data collection scheduled in my cron jobs; Hoock name: eum-monthly, actions: MPSUM_Tracking::send() to keen.io
    It used to be an option in the advanced settings to opt out the data collection but now it seems to be a forced built in feature.
    I looked at the MPSUM_Tracking.php script and it seems to be collecting plugin options data and filtering out email addresses “unset( $options[ ’email_addresses’ ] )” but I’m not sure, is that so?. I wish you’d give us the choice to enable or not this feature.
    Appart form this, the plugin is excellent.

    The data tracking should be opt-in, as we’d be violating the guidelines here.

    We’ll investigate.

    @vickymedrano,

    I did find a bug in reset options that prevented a cron job from being cleared, which I will try to fix shortly.

    Aside from that, I can’t at this moment find any reason through code inspection and testing why your EUM copy would add a cron job without the user saying it’s okay.

    In the mean time, you can install WP Crontrol to remove the errant cron job.

    We just released version 6.4.4 which should have the option for removing tracking.

    If you find any other instances of being opted-in without permission, please let us know. This shouldn’t be happening.

    Hi Ronald,

    Thanks soooo much for your quick and thoughtful replies! you’re awsome!! 🙂
    I didn’t get notified by email about your comments in this thread… but I noticed on the 6.4.4 update the issue about the tracking had been fixed, so I came back to post an update on this comment, and to thank you 🙂
