 * That’s a pretty serious accusation. Can you prove that in the plugin code?

 * I already deleted it and have no intention of reinstalling it.
 * As soon as I enabled the plugin inside WP, I received one or two emails from 
   the developer – despite never registering for anything. This was almost instantly
   after activating it and setting the initial piece up.

 * Hi barrychapman,
 * Sorry to hear you are disappointed.
 * After installing, Photo Gallery plugin displays a message, where explicitly asks
   your permission to get your name, email address and some more data (listed clearly
   in “What data is being collected?” part of the message), which
 * > “will allow you to get more out of your plugin experience – get awesome customer
   > support, receive exclusive deals and discounts on premium products and more”
 * .
 * As the message clearly states,
 * > “You can choose to skip this step, Photo Gallery will still work just fine.”
 * After giving your permission, you get an email from us with some useful information
   about the plugin: steps to get started, documentation, FAQ and support links,
   etc. The email has an unsubscribe link, which allows you to opt out from any 
   other email messages from us.
