is it expected that we set the defaults here, or would we want to have a default like the custom email option below?

nitpick: the comment at the end matches L46, but I think it could be cleaner code to consider changing the variable names here to those, if those are better descriptions than what we have as variables in the code.

what do you think?

formData.formGoogleEmailSender = form.dataset.sender || "Contact Form"; //default email from text
formData.formGoogleSendEmail
= form.dataset.email || ""; // no email by default

I believe these || ... checks won't get hit in all cases.

If the parameters are null or undefined, (like if someone just updates the backend script here or doesn't give these parameters), then you would end up with String(undefined) = 'undefined' which is not falsey.

It may be worth setting the name / subject above and consider using mailData and/or .toString() when the field is present/truthy.

// replyTo: String(mailData.email), // This is optional and reliant on your form actually collecting a field named `email`
htmlBody: formatMailBody(mailData, dataOrder)
});
