Google PageSpeed Insights API

• What the service is: Google’s PageSpeed Insights API runs Lighthouse-style performance, accessibility, best-practices, and SEO audits on URLs you submit.
• What data is sent: For each URL you scan, your WordPress site sends an HTTPS request to pagespeedonline.googleapis.com containing the public URL to test, your API key, the device strategy (mobile or desktop), and requested audit categories. When validating an API key, the plugin may send a request using https://example.com/ as a probe URL.
• When data is sent: Only when you (or an authorized admin) start or retry a scan, run an editor sidebar test, or save settings that trigger key validation. Bulk scans queue requests in the background; no data is sent when the plugin is idle.
• Where data is stored: API responses (scores and metrics) are stored in your WordPress database. Your API key is stored in the wp_options table.
• Terms of service: Google APIs Terms of Service
