I do not appreciate the tracker!

  • This coming soon plugin contains a tracker, which logs all visits to a third party website:

    2016/11/10 14:48:54 [error] 16318#16318: *7737 FastCGI sent in stderr: “PHP message: PHP Warning: file_get_contents(https://tech-banker.com/tracker/LocateIp.php?ip_address=$client_ip): failed to open stream: HTTP request failed! HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found
    in /html/wp-content/plugins/wp-coming-soon-booster/theme/includes/frontend-footer.php on line 272” while reading response header from upstream, client: $client_ip, server: $server, request: “GET / HTTP/2.0”, upstream: “fastcgi://unix:/run/php/php7.0-fpm.sock:”, host: “$server”

    As you can see above fortunately this URL 404s, however without this happening we wouldn’t have known.

    Hi,

    Sorry for the inconvenience caused.

    Firstly, its not a tracker. It is a web service which we used to fetch the location details of the people contacting you on your website when they subscribe the form or fill in the contact form.

    We never store any information and it is not allowed at all.

    It is only for the convenience of the people to know who is contacting on their coming soon website and from where.

    The API Returns json data which is then stored at your database in your website.

    The service was down for few hours and that’s the reason you see it on your page.

    Hope that makes sense!

    Thanks
