This section contains lookup material: term definitions, security model details, and data handling information. If you are looking for a definition of a specific Order Daemon term, checking how webhook signatures work, or reviewing what data the plugin stores, you are in the right place.

Glossary

The Glossary defines all Order Daemon-specific terms. Key terms include:

• Universal Event – the normalized event object that Order Daemon creates from any trigger source (WooCommerce order hook, incoming webhook, cron ping), giving all triggers a consistent data shape
• Trigger – the rule component that defines which event wakes the rule
• Condition – a filter that must pass for the action to run; all conditions must pass
• Action – the side effect that fires when the trigger occurs and all conditions pass
• Audit log – the per-execution record stored for every rule evaluation

Security

The Security page covers HMAC signature verification for inbound webhooks, the capability checks that gate the admin UI and REST API, nonce handling, and the authentication model for application password access.

Privacy and compliance

The Privacy & Compliance page documents exactly what data Order Daemon stores, default retention periods, and considerations for GDPR compliance including what happens to audit log entries when an order is deleted.
