WPWriteAI WordPress Plugin — Last updated: April 2026

1. Who We Are

WPWriteAI is a WordPress plugin developed and operated by Deepak Samele (trading as Deepak Samele, Jhansi, India). Contact: deepak@deepaksamele.com

2. What Data the Plugin Collects

Site Fingerprint

On first activation, WPWriteAI generates a SHA-256 hash from your site URL and admin email. This fingerprint is stored locally in your WordPress database and sent to our licensing server (deepaksamele.com) to enforce free-plan limits and prevent abuse. It cannot be used to identify individuals and is not shared with third parties.

Usage Counts

The number of posts generated per 30-day period is stored locally and synced to our server along with your domain and fingerprint. This data is used solely to enforce plan limits.

License Key

If you purchase a paid plan, your license key and domain are stored on our licensing server to validate your subscription and enforce site limits. This is standard practice for all premium WordPress plugins.

API Keys (Local Only)

Your Anthropic Claude API key is stored only in your WordPress database (wp_options). It is never sent to our servers. API calls are made directly from your WordPress server to Anthropic.
