### External Services

This plugin connects to the Gozo Album API to retrieve photographic content that
is displayed on the website.

The external service is used to fetch photo data (such as image URLs, titles, descriptions,
categories, tags, locations, and related metadata) required to render the Gozo Album
galleries.

The plugin sends API requests when:
 – A page containing the Gozo Album shortcode
is loaded – Cached data is refreshed automatically or manually by the site administrator

The plugin sends HTTP GET requests to the Gozo Album API endpoints to retrieve photo,
tag, and photographer data.
 Requests include standard HTTP headers and, if configured
by the site administrator, an API key sent via request headers.

Filtering, pagination, and display logic are processed locally within the plugin
and are not transmitted to the external service.

No personal data, user-generated content, IP addresses, cookies, or visitor-identifiable
information are transmitted.

API Access:
 To use this plugin, an API key is required. Site administrators can
request an API key via the official Gozo Album API request page: https://gozoalbum.
gov.mt/api-request

The Gozo Album API is owned, operated, and maintained by the same entity that publishes
this plugin (Gozo Album).
