Independence Hub

Privacy policy

Effective October 3, 2026

What Independence Hub receives

When a WordPress administrator approves a connection, the Independence Hub Connector sends the site URL, a random site-specific connection token, and the aggregate Independent Analytics data requested by the dashboard. The token is sent over HTTPS and is not a WordPress account password.

How it is used

To identify each connection in WordPress, Hub verifies the requesting account over HTTPS and shares its account email and identifier with the connector. WordPress stores those details, the approval date, and a hash of each connection token. Each account’s access can be disconnected separately. The token is encrypted at rest and used only to request aggregate data from the connector's read-only analytics endpoints. It cannot authenticate to WordPress or access other WordPress APIs.

Your choices

You can remove a site from Independence Hub or revoke its token from the Independence Hub Connector settings in WordPress at any time. Either action prevents future analytics requests through that connection.

For privacy questions, contact the Independence Hub administrator through the site where you received access.
