== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= Does this plugin include branding? =
By default, the plugin is unbranded. You can optionally check the "Show Powered by CaseAI" box in the settings to support our development, but this is completely up to you!

== External Services ==

This plugin connects to external third-party services to enable the WhatsApp chat button functionality.

= WhatsApp / Meta =
When a visitor clicks the chat button, they are redirected to one of the following WhatsApp URLs (no data is sent by the plugin itself — the redirect happens in the user's browser):

* **Mobile:** `https://wa.me/` — Opens the WhatsApp app on mobile devices.
* **Desktop:** `https://web.whatsapp.com/send` — Opens WhatsApp Web on desktop browsers.

The phone number you enter in the plugin settings is appended to these URLs client-side. No data is transmitted to Anthropic, CaseAI servers, or any other party by this plugin.
