– The following endpoints are used:  
  – https://test-im-netz.de/license-check.php (Standard)  
  – https://test-im-netz.de/license-pro-check.php (Pro)

– The plugin fetches product data using Amazon’s PA-API (Product Advertising API).  
– It retrieves data based on the ASIN you enter:
  – Price
  – Title
  – Image
  – Sales Rank
  – Product features
– API calls occur:
  – When you manually retrieve product info in the backend
  – When automatic updates are scheduled via `boxyfy_cron_update_amazon_prices`

– Privacy: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/privacy/

No data is sent to Amazon unless required to fetch live product information.

Note: These connections are necessary for license checks and real-time Amazon data retrieval.

3. Perplexity API via Proxy Server
