This plugin has been given a short, targeted code review.

Before using this plugin, you should carefully consider these findings. Read more about this recommendation.

Findings

No issues with the plugin code were identified. Consideration should be given to data protection and privacy as detailed below.

Note the plugin requires an account on https://app.mouseflow.com/  which provides the tracking code to add to the website with this plugin.

Reason for the 'Use with caution' result

The plugin has been given this recommendation at the tester's discretion:

As this plugin enables tracking with a third-party service, the website owner will need to consider the legal data protection implications. The tracking code may need to be integrated with consent mechanisms for the website rather than incorporated via the plugin. There are also other options to install the tracking code, including via GTM, as detailed on https://app.mouseflow.com/

The free trial allows 500 recordings per month.
