It contains no information about your store and is not derived from your site address. It is used only on this plugin’s own admin welcome screen to keep the page’s self-hosted, first-party analytics consistent between visits (no data is sold or shared; analytics are processed on wcpos.com infrastructure). The identifier: is generated locally by WordPress (wp_generate_uuid4()), is deleted when you uninstall the plugin, can be rotated or removed at any time with WP-CLI: wp wcpos anon-id rotate / wp wcpos anon-id delete. Detailed store information (product counts, order counts, WooCommerce version) is sent only if you explicitly opt in via the tracking-consent prompt, and you can withdraw consent at any time in POS settings.
