I Leave for One Week and You People Break Everything!

GPDR Privacy Policy Addendum:

Our plugins and add-ons are compatible with GDPR. Below are the common questions related to GDPR.
Do your plugins track any data? We do not track any user data via our plugins. But if our plugin depends on any third party service, they might track user data. This can happen in following two ways:
1. Embedded Widgets
Some of our plugins have features to integrate embedded widgets as is, from third party services (like Facebook Like, Facebook Recommend, Twitter Tweet official buttons).
2. Third-party APIs/Connections
Our plugins send request to third party APIs via website-visitor’s web browser to fetch information (like social shares, social comment count). This request made by web browser may include IP address, which can then be seen by the third-party that it’s being requested from. This API request doesn’t include any personal data of the website user other than the IP address.
Where is the data collected by your plugins stored?
We do not store any data fetched by our plugins on our servers, neither we share that data with any third party. O
Do your plugins load any external scripts?
As mentioned before, our plugins run absolutely from your website and hence load the scripts too from your website with exception of third-party embedded widgets (like Facebook Like/Recommend official button, Twitter tweet official button, Facebook Comments) which require our plugin to load scripts from the servers of relevant service.

Market and Global Turmoil, Today Through May 11th

Yup, the Dow Jones barfed up a Bill the Cat style hairball:

Not enough turmoil for you? Check out the Nasdisaster Index:

So even all the declarations by the Junta in DC and the Bald Dude with Plastic Bulls couldn’t put Humpty Dump-the-Market back together again while I was gone.

Here’s your hairball boys, enjoy the aroma as it’s only going to get worse. A lot worse. More on that in tonight’s post with some scary anecdotes from a Chinese engineer, a trucking executive, and our meeting of the minds with others enjoying quality adult products and cigars last week.
