Privacy Policy

Direct Freight Express Shipping for WooCommerce uses Appsero SDK to collect some telemetry data upon user’s confirmation. This helps us to troubleshoot problems faster & make product improvements.

Appsero SDK does not gather any data by default. The SDK only starts gathering basic telemetry data when a user allows it via the admin notice. We collect the data to ensure a great user experience for all our users.

Integrating Appsero SDK DOES NOT IMMEDIATELY start gathering data, without confirmation from users in any case.

Learn more about how Appsero collects and uses this data.

Support

For any issues or questions, please reach out through the support forum.

How do I get my Direct Freight API credentials?

You can request your API credentials by contacting Direct Freight customer support or by logging into your Direct Freight account.

What happens if the API request fails?

In the event of an API failure, the Direct Freight Express Shipping rate will not show on frontend.

Does the plugin support other currencies without AUD?

No, this plugin currently only supports AUD. If you need to support other currencies, don’t hesitate to get in touch with me.
