## Description

Kumibox-info is a specialized tool for local news portals. It connects your WordPress
site to the Kumibox-info API to automatically import news, alerts, and data relevant
to your region (Police, Fire Department, Culture, Sports, Weather, Statistics, and
more).

This plugin provides a seamless dashboard for managing data sources, monitoring 
usage limits, and handling subscriptions.

Key Features:

Automated News Importing: Fetches news articles and creates WordPress posts automatically(
Draft or Publish status).

Smart Widgets: Display live data like Weather, NFZ (National Health Fund) queues,
Tenders, and Statistics using simple Shortcodes (e.g., [kumiboxinfo_data id=”123″]).

Client Dashboard: Manage your subscription, view usage stats, and configure data
sources directly from the WP Admin.

Categorization: Intelligent mapping of external categories (e.g., Police, Culture)
to your system.

Security: Built with WordPress nonces and capability checks to ensure secure data
handling.

Important: 3rd Party Service Disclaimer

This plugin acts as a connector (client) for an external service. It sends requests
to 3rd party APIs to function properly.

Kumiboxinfo API (Main Service)

This plugin connects to the Kumiboxinfo API servers (hosted at kumibox.net) to fetch
news content, weather data, and configuration settings.

To use this plugin, you must have an API Key. You can register for a Free account
directly within the plugin interface.

The plugin facilitates subscription payments for premium plans via Paddle.

All payments are processed securely on Paddle’s servers; no credit card data is 
stored on your WordPress site.

### External services

This plugin connects to the Kumiboxinfo API (hosted at https://paletyzer.kumibox.
net/api5/) to fetch news content, weather data, and widget configurations.

 * What data is sent: The plugin sends the saved API Key for authentication and 
   the user’s email address when creating a new account or recovering a key. For
   weather and specific widgets, it may send latitude, longitude, or city names 
   based on the user’s plugin configuration.
 * When data is sent: Data is sent automatically in the background via WordPress
   Cron (hourly or according to the user’s plan), or manually when the user clicks“
   Refresh” or saves settings in the admin panel.

This plugin also integrates with Paddle (https://paddle.com) to handle secure payments
and subscription management.

 * What data is sent: The user’s email address and API key are passed as URL parameters
   when opening the Paddle checkout link to pre-fill the form and link the subscription
   to the correct account.
 * When data is sent: Only when the user manually clicks the “Buy” or “Choose Plan”
   buttons in the admin panel.
