== External services ==
This plugin connects to the Premium Black API (https://premium.black/service/rest/Pay.svc) to process and verify cryptocurrency payments, and to transmit payment status and transaction details between your WooCommerce shop and the Premium Black platform.

**What data is sent and when?**
- When a customer selects Premium Black as payment method and places an order, the following data is sent to the Premium Black API: order amount, selected cryptocurrency, blockchain, WooCommerce order ID, customer email, and other transaction-related information required to process the payment.
- During payment status checks (e.g. webhook callbacks), the plugin transmits the transaction ID and key to verify and update the payment status.

**Why is this data sent?**
- The data is required to create, process, and verify cryptocurrency payments, and to keep the order status in sync with the payment status on the Premium Black platform.

**Where is the data sent?**
- All data is sent securely to the Premium Black API endpoint: https://premium.black/service/rest/Pay.svc

**Under which conditions?**
- Data is only sent when a customer initiates a payment using the Premium Black gateway, or when the plugin checks or updates the payment status for an order.
