Privacy — Cart Shipping Estimator for WooCommerce (free and Pro)
Last updated: 2026-10-12. Publisher: Timothée Aubourg.
Free plugin
- No data collected by the publisher. The plugin sends nothing to the publisher or to any third party. It makes no external call, loads no remote script or font, and sets no cookie of its own.
- The address a shopper enters (country, state or region, postcode, and city when shown) is sent only to your own site, through the WooCommerce Store API, and is kept by WooCommerce in the shopper's WooCommerce session, exactly like an address typed at checkout. Its storage, retention and deletion follow WooCommerce and your own store's privacy policy.
- Stored by the plugin: one option,
csewc_settings(on/off and title). No personal data. Deleted on uninstall.
Pro add-on
- License and updates through the Freemius SDK, the only network calls. Pro embeds the Freemius WordPress SDK (Freemius, Inc., Wilmington, Delaware, United States, the reseller of the Pro plugin). Right after the plugin is activated, the SDK shows a license activation screen. When the store administrator enters the license key, the SDK sends to Freemius the key, the site address and name, an anonymous site identifier, the WordPress, PHP, plugin and SDK versions, the site language, whether the site is a local one, and the first name, last name and e-mail address of the WordPress administrator who activates (the Freemius account of the license holder is linked to them). Afterwards the SDK checks the license and looks for plugin updates periodically (about once a day) with the same site data, and tells Freemius when the plugin is deactivated or uninstalled. Two optional items, off by default: the list of installed plugins and themes is sent only if the administrator allows it on the Pro Account page; the text typed in the SDK's deactivation feedback form, if any, is sent at uninstall. No shopper data is ever sent; the free plugin makes no external call at all.
- License key: stored by the Freemius SDK in the WordPress options (
fs_accounts), shown only on the Pro Account page and only when the administrator clicks "Show", never sent anywhere but to Freemius. If Freemius cannot be reached, the SDK keeps the last known license state until the next successful check, and stops the Pro features at the license expiry date. - Remembered address (opt-in by the store): when the administrator turns it on, the last address estimated by a shopper (only the estimator fields) is kept in that shopper's browser, in
localStorageunder the keycsewc_address. It stays on the shopper's device and is not sent anywhere by Pro. Shoppers can remove it by clearing their browser's site data. If you turn this option on, mention it in your store's privacy policy. - Purchase data (name, e-mail, billing details) is handled by Freemius as reseller under its own privacy policy, not by the plugin.
- The Pro option (
csewc_pro_settings) is deleted when the plugin is uninstalled from the WordPress admin. The Freemius SDK keeps its own account data (installation, user, license) in the WordPress options after uninstall, as Freemius designed it; to remove them, use "Delete account" on the Pro Account page before uninstalling.
