## Description

Bernz Social Feed allows you to easily display your Instagram or Facebook posts 
on your WordPress site. Features include:

 * Responsive grid layout (4 columns on desktop, 2 on tablet, 1 on mobile)
 * Beautiful hover effects with image zoom
 * Gradient overlays with captions
 * Easy shortcode implementation: [bernz_social_feed]
 * Automatic caching for better performance

### External Services

This plugin connects to the official Meta (Facebook) Graph API to retrieve posts
from your Instagram or Facebook account. This connection is required for the plugin
to function.

 * **What data is sent and when?**
    The plugin sends your pre-configured Account/
   Page ID and Access Token to the Meta API only when your website needs to display
   or refresh the social media feed. No personal data from your website’s visitors
   is sent to Meta.
 * **Why is this data sent?**
    The Account ID and Access Token are necessary to 
   authenticate with the Meta API and request your specific social media posts. 
   This is how the plugin retrieves the images and captions to display on your site.
 * **Links to Meta’s Policies:**
    - [Meta Platform Terms](https://developers.facebook.com/terms/)
    - [Meta Privacy Policy](https://www.facebook.com/privacy/policy/)
 * **API Documentation:**
    - [Instagram Platform](https://developers.facebook.com/docs/instagram-platform/)
    - [Facebook Platform](https://developers.facebook.com/docs/pages-api/)
