Privacy

Trilobita DocVault stores the following user data:

• Uploader user ID – Stored as post meta (_trdv_uploaded_by) to track who uploaded each document version.
• Download logs – When download tracking is enabled, the plugin records the downloader’s IP address, user ID (if logged in), and timestamp in a custom database table (trdv_download_log).

This data is handled in compliance with GDPR and CCPA:

• The plugin registers with the WordPress privacy tools for data export and erasure requests.
• A suggested privacy policy text is provided under Settings > Privacy.
• IP addresses and download logs can be deleted via the WordPress personal data erasure tool.
