The plugin contacts this service only when an administrator explicitly clicks “Publish to network” in the WordPress admin area and confirms the Contest Gallery Network privacy notice. After publishing, the listing is refreshed once daily by WordPress Cron while the plugin remains active. Administrators can remove the listing again with “Unpublish from Network”. Submitted data includes public website and gallery listing information: website title and URL, gallery title, gallery description, tags/categories, the selected public gallery URL, preview image URLs, and public activity numbers such as entries, votes and comments. The plugin does not submit IP addresses, email addresses, usernames, registration data, comment text, form field values or other private user data to Contest Gallery Network. Contest Gallery Network may verify domain ownership, review submitted public content and images for safety, and publish the listing only if it passes review. If the service does not receive updates for 14 days, the public listing can expire and be removed from the Network index.
