hCaptcha® service protects your forms from bots, spam, and automated abuse. It poses a checkbox widget challenge and evaluates the user response to determine if it’s a human or a bot interacting with the form. It prevents the user to proceed if the test fails and helps make online transactions secure by keeping bots from posting spam or malicious activities.
