Functionality

This WordPress plugin uses the third party public REST API on https://orcid.org to query publicly available information for any ORCID record hosted on https://orcid.org and display this on a WordPress page, post, or site. Only publicly available data is retrieved from ORCID. You may provide multiple, different ORCID iDs for use with multiple, different blocks of this plugin within a Gutenberg editor. Registration and authentication with ORCID are not necessary to do this. The only necessity is to provide a valid 16-digit ORCID iD.

Disclosure of Data Sent

• What: ORCID iDs users provide
• Where: https://orcid.org
• Why: to query the public data of an ORCID record users wish to use with this plugin
• Under What Circumstances:
  • whenever a user provides an ORCID iD to a block instance of this plugin
  • whenever a post, page, or site that includes a block instance of this plugin is loaded

User-provided ORCID iDs are sent to the public third party REST API on https://orcid.org. This plugin uses the REST API located at https://orcid.org/####-####-####-####. It is necessary to provide an ORCID iD to identify an ORCID record you wish to use when displaying ORCID record information on a WordPress post, page, or site.
