The connection is required because the chat assistant is hosted and processed by Chaaty.<\/p>\n\n<p>What the plugin does:<\/p>\n\n<ul>\n<li>It loads the Chaaty widget script from <code>https:\/\/chaaty.io\/widget\/embed.js<\/code> on the front end of your site (only when you have entered a Chatbot ID and the assistant is enabled).<\/li>\n<li>When a visitor interacts with the assistant, their messages and related session data are sent to Chaaty (<code>https:\/\/chaaty.io<\/code>) to generate replies and, where enabled, capture leads or bookings. This happens in the visitor's browser via the loaded widget.<\/li>\n<li>The plugin sends your Chatbot ID (which you provide) to identify which assistant to load.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p>The plugin itself does not send your visitors' data to any other service. Data handling by Chaaty is governed by its policies:<\/p>\n\n<ul>\n<li>Terms of Service: https:\/\/chaaty.io\/terms<\/li>\n<li>Privacy Policy: https:\/\/chaaty.io\/privacy<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p>If you remove the plugin or disable the assistant, the widget script is no longer loaded on your site.<\/p>\n\n<!--section=installation-->\n<ol>\n<li>Install and activate the plugin.<\/li>\n<li>Open <strong>Webaaty<\/strong> in your WordPress sidebar and click <strong>Create free account<\/strong> (or sign in to an existing Chaaty account) \u2014 no credit card needed.<\/li>\n<li>The plugin scans your site and builds your assistant on your own content.<\/li>\n<li>That's it \u2014 the assistant is live on your site.
