This plugin uses the LACRM API to create or update contacts when someone submits a Contact Form 7 or Gravity Forms form on your site.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>What data is sent and when:<\/strong><br \/>\nWhen a visitor submits a form that has LACRM sync enabled, the plugin sends to LACRM only the data that you have mapped (for example: first name, last name, email, phone, company, notes). Data is sent at the time of form submission. Your LACRM API key is stored in your WordPress database and is sent with each API request to authenticate your account. No data is sent to LACRM unless a form is submitted and sync is enabled for that form.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Third-party links:<\/strong><br \/>\nLess Annoying CRM is provided by Less Annoying CRM.
