BackupRidge is designed to keep your backup data under your control. Services below are only used when you enable related features.
FTP
- Data sent: Backup archive files uploaded via FTP using host, port, path, and credentials you supply.
- When: When FTP remote storage is configured and backup uploads run.
- Terms / Privacy: No single third-party Terms or Privacy URL applies — the destination is a server endpoint you choose (self-hosted or a provider you select).
SFTP
- Data sent: Backup archive files uploaded over SSH file transfer using host, credentials or keys, and path you configure.
- When: When SFTP remote storage is configured and backup uploads run.
- Terms / Privacy: No single third-party Terms or Privacy URL applies — the destination is a server endpoint you choose (self-hosted or a provider you select).
HTTP Webhooks
- Data sent: Backup status payloads (job id, status, size, duration, etc.) POSTed to a URL you configure; format can be generic JSON, Slack, or Discord.
- When: When webhooks are enabled in Settings and a backup completes or fails (per your toggles).
- Terms / Privacy: If you point webhooks at Slack or Discord, those services’ terms and privacy policies apply to the received data.
REST Cron Trigger
- Data sent: Same-site REST requests with a secret key so backup segments can run without WP-Cron or loopback (no backup payload leaves your site).
- When: When you call the cron-trigger URL from system cron or another local automation.
- Terms / Privacy: No third party receives data — requests go only to your WordPress site.
