External Services / Data Disclosure
This plugin can connect to the following third‑party APIs depending on which features you enable. You (the site owner) must supply the API keys. No keys are bundled and no traffic is proxied through a vendor server controlled by this plugin author.
1. OpenAI
Used for: chat completions / responses, embeddings (context indexing), moderation (safety checks).
Endpoints used (HTTPS):
* https://api.openai.com/v1/chat/completions (legacy Chat Completions)
* https://api.openai.com/v1/responses (Responses API – new unified endpoint if configured)
* https://api.openai.com/v1/embeddings (document/post/PDF embedding + wizard indexing)
* https://api.openai.com/v1/moderations (content moderation)
Data Sent:
* User prompt text (per message) and limited conversation history (trimmed for token control)
* System / policy instructions (security + privacy policy + bot instructions)
* Optional retrieved context snippets (only the selected top‑N chunks or page excerpt – never the full original document)
* Embedding requests: raw chunk text produced from your site’s content or uploaded PDFs
* Moderation: only the user prompt text (not the entire history)
Data Retention (Your Server):
* Conversation log rows (if logging enabled) including user prompt, model reply, timestamps, bot slug, session id, optional user id. IP (binary) only stored when per‑IP limits are turned on. Disable logging to stop storing new rows.
* Embeddings table stores numeric vectors generated from your content (not reversible plaintext) plus the original chunk text for retrieval.
Recommendations:
* Update your privacy policy to disclose sending user prompts and limited site content to OpenAI for processing.
* Disable logging or periodically purge if you process personal data.
Legal / Docs:
* Terms: https://openai.com/policies/terms-of-use
* Privacy: https://openai.com/policies/privacy-policy
* Usage Policies: https://openai.com/policies/usage-policies
Opt‑Out / Control:
* Remove the OpenAI API key in Settings to stop all OpenAI calls (bots will refuse to answer).
* Disable conversation logging.
* Limit context ingestion to non‑sensitive pages.
2. Anthropic (Claude)
Used for: alternative chat completions via Claude models (messages API) when a bot provider is set to Anthropic/Claude.
Endpoint used (HTTPS):
* https://api.anthropic.com/v1/messages
Data Sent:
* A rewritten message array: system instructions + user prompt + condensed prior turns (trimmed) + optional retrieved context snippets.
* Model identifier, max tokens / temperature style parameters.
Headers:
* x-api-key (your key) and anthropic-version (currently 2023-06-01 set in code).
Retention (Your Server):
* Same as OpenAI notes for conversation logging (the provider choice does not change local storage schema).
Legal / Docs:
* Terms: https://www.anthropic.com/legal/terms-of-service
* Privacy: https://www.anthropic.com/legal/privacy
* Usage Policy: https://www.anthropic.com/legal/aup
Opt‑Out / Control:
* Leave the Claude API key blank; those bots will fallback/refuse if provider requires it.
* Switch provider per bot back to OpenAI.
3. Pinecone (Optional Remote Vector Store)
Only used if you explicitly create a Context with remote type “Pinecone”. Local context mode (default) never contacts Pinecone.
Endpoint Pattern:
* Region/index specific HTTPS endpoints you enter (example placeholder: https://controller.pinecone.io and index query/upsert endpoints under *.pinecone.io). The plugin validates host against an allowlist containing pinecone.io (filter extendable).
Used For:
* Upserting embeddings (during context indexing / syncing)
* Querying similar vectors when answering a question in that context.
Data Sent:
* Vectors (embedding arrays) and associated metadata (post/page IDs, titles, short chunk text) for upsert.
* Query: the embedding vector of the user question + top‑K request.
Retention:
* Stored inside your Pinecone project (not on this plugin server). Local DB still keeps minimal reference metadata if you mix modes.
Legal / Docs:
* Terms: https://www.pinecone.io/terms/
* Privacy: https://www.pinecone.io/privacy/
* Security: https://www.pinecone.io/security/
Opt‑Out / Control:
* Do not configure a remote …

سوالات متداول
-
Q: Why choose AxiaChat AI over other WordPress chatbot plugins?
-
A: AxiaChat AI gives you complete control with support for multiple AI providers (OpenAI, Claude, Gemini), advanced RAG capabilities, MCP server integration, and enterprise features—all while keeping your data on your server. Think of it as your own private ChatGPT, trained on your content, embedded in your site, with no monthly SaaS fees beyond your chosen AI provider’s API costs.
-
Q: Do I need an OpenAI API key?
-
A: You need at least one AI provider API key (OpenAI, Claude, or Gemini). OpenAI is recommended for getting started. All keys are yours—we never charge markup or routing fees.
-
Q: How much does it cost to run?
-
A: The plugin is free. You only pay your AI provider’s API usage (typically $0.001-0.01 per conversation). Usage limits help you control costs. A typical e-commerce site handles hundreds of conversations for under $10/month.
-
Q: Can the chatbot learn from my website content?
-
A: Yes! The Easy Config Wizard automatically scans and indexes your site content. You can also upload PDFs, select specific pages, or train it on your knowledge base. The chatbot uses Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) to provide accurate, contextual answers.
-
Q: Will this work with my WooCommerce store?
-
A: Absolutely. The wizard auto-detects WooCommerce and indexes your products. The chatbot can answer product questions, help with comparisons, and guide customers through your catalog.
-
Q: How do I control API costs?
-
A: Set daily usage limits (per-user, per-IP, or global). Choose what happens when limits are reached: disable input or hide the widget. Monitor usage in real-time via the built-in logs and cost tracking.
-
Q: Is chat conversation data stored? Can I disable logging?
-
A: Chat conversation logging is optional and fully controllable. Toggle it ON to review interactions and improve your bot, or OFF for maximum privacy. When enabled, data stays on YOUR server—never sent to us.
-
Q: How is GDPR compliance handled?
-
A: Built-in GDPR consent management with an in-stream consent bubble that blocks chat input until accepted. IP addresses are only stored if usage limits are enabled. You maintain full data control and can delete logs anytime.
-
Q: What is MCP Server Integration?
-
A: Model Context Protocol (MCP) lets your bot connect to external tools, databases, and APIs. Extend functionality beyond Q&A: fetch live data, integrate with your CRM, query inventory systems, and more—all without custom coding.
-
Q: Does it support web search?
-
A: Yes! Enable provider-native web search so your bot can access current information from the internet. Works with OpenAI GPT-5*, Claude 4.x, and Gemini. Optional domain allowlists let you restrict sources to trusted sites only.
-
Q: Can I customize the appearance?
-
A: Complete customization: colors, avatars (9 included + custom upload), position, size, window controls (draggable, minimizable, closable), button labels, and more. Match your brand perfectly.
-
Q: Where can I deploy the chatbot?
-
A: Two ways: (1) Floating global widget visible across your entire site, or (2) inline embedding via shortcode on specific pages/posts. Mix and match different bots for different pages.
-
Q: What languages are supported?
-
A: The AI models support 100+ languages naturally. The plugin UI is translation-ready (Spanish included) and works with RTL languages. Customize all bot responses for any language.
-
Q: Can visitors send images or documents in the chat?
-
A: Yes! When file uploads are enabled on a bot, visitors see a 📎 button to attach photos (JPG, PNG, WebP) or PDF documents. Images are analyzed by the AI using vision capabilities — the model literally sees the photo. PDFs have their text extracted and analyzed in context. Great for getting quotes from photos, reviewing contracts, diagnosing issues from screenshots, and much more.
-
Q: Can the AI forward uploaded images to external systems?
-
A: Yes. Uploaded images are stored securely as base64 (never exposed via public URLs). When the AI calls a Custom Webhook or MCP Server tool, it can include the image data as a parameter — making it available to automation platforms like n8n, Zapier, or Make for further processing. Your visitors’ private files are never publicly accessible.
-
Q: Can visitors use voice input?
-
A: Yes, voice chat input is supported for compatible chatbots. Users can speak their questions instead of typing.
-
Q: Will more AI providers be added?
-
A: Yes! Azure OpenAI, additional models, and more providers are on the roadmap. The plugin’s extensible architecture makes adding new providers straightforward.
-
Q: What if I need a custom capability not listed?
-
A: We can build custom capabilities tailored to your business needs. Custom development is available under a project quote. Contact us for a quote
-
Q: Are there paid plans? What do they include?
-
A: Yes! AxiaChat AI offers a generous free version with core features. Premium plans unlock additional capabilities. Visit axiachat.org to learn more.
-
Q: Is support available?
-
A: Free users can get community help via the WordPress.org support forum. Priority support with faster response times is available for paid plan subscribers. Visit axiachat.org for support options. When reporting issues, please include your WP version, PHP version, and logging status. You can also export a diagnostics ZIP from the plugin’s Advanced settings to speed up troubleshooting.
