## Frequently asked questions
Q: Will AuraGuardian slow down my website?
A: No. AuraGuardian uses a Stale-While-Revalidate caching approach so rules are cached locally and refreshed in the background.

Q: Does it work with WordPress, Laravel, or custom PHP?
A: Yes. AuraGuardian includes a framework-agnostic PHP agent and optional Node/Python agents.

Q: Is it GDPR compliant?
A: AuraGuardian is designed to minimise personal data processing by default. Where IP addresses are processed for security, this may be justified under legitimate interests (Recital 49).
