Privacy Policy

Entabit Backup is designed with privacy in mind and does not send any data to external servers.

What data is stored?

• Backup files containing your complete WordPress site (database, files, wp-config.php)
• Backup metadata (creation time, file size, backup name) stored in your WordPress database
• Activity logs (user actions, IP addresses, timestamps) stored locally in your database for audit purposes

Where is data stored?

• Backup files are stored locally on your server in wp-content/entabit-backups/ by default, or in the path configured by ENTABIT_BACKUP_STORAGE_DIR
• Completed backup ZIP archives are stored in the active storage root’s completed subdirectory
• If the preferred/custom storage root is not writable, backup files may be stored in wp-content/uploads/entabit-backups/ (using its own completed subdirectory)
• All logs and metadata are stored in your WordPress database
• No data is transmitted to external servers or third-party services

Security considerations

• Backup files contain sensitive information including database credentials from wp-config.php
• Access to backups requires WordPress administrator privileges
• Downloaded backup files should be stored securely on your local computer
• The backup directory is protected with deny files where supported, but server configuration should also prevent direct public access
• PHP 7.2 is allowed for legacy site compatibility, but it is end-of-life; PHP 8.3 or newer is recommended by WordPress.org for better security

Data retention

• Backups are stored indefinitely until manually deleted by an administrator
• Backup files remain on disk when the plugin is deleted; remove backup files from wp-content/entabit-backups/completed/, wp-content/uploads/entabit-backups/completed/, or your custom ENTABIT_BACKUP_STORAGE_DIR/completed/ manually if you no longer need them
• Activity logs are stored indefinitely in your database
• No automatic cleanup or data transmission occurs
