reCAPTCHA v3 on forms¶
Google’s reCAPTCHA protects website forms against spam and abuse. It attempts to distinguish between human and bot submissions.
Warning
reCAPTCHA v3 may not be compliant with local data protection regulations.
Note
reCAPTCHA v3 works in the background and does not interrupt visitors. However, if the check fails, visitors cannot submit the form.
