 * Hi,
 * I’m generally pleased with the recent redesign of the plugin, but I have an important
   question: Does the “Powered by Patchstack” vulnerable software checker feature
   now communicate directly with Patchstack servers, and does that communication
   transmit any personal data or potentially personally identifiable information
   to Patchstack directly? I’m trying to determine if this integration raises any
   privacy or GDPR concerns I need to be aware of.
 * Thanks!

   I’ll get back to you as soon as I get a response. Please note that the reply

 * Hi [@ate-up-with-motor](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ate-up-with-motor/)
 * We heard back from the development team on this, and nothing is transmitted to
   Patchstack’s servers from your site. Requests are sent only to Liquid Web (the
   parent company of SolidWP)’s servers. The information that is transmitted is 
   the Site URL, Plugins, Themes, and WordPress version. No user information is 
   transmitted at all.
