  • Risk Score: reCAPTCHA generates a score indicating the likelihood that a request is legitimate.

  • To detect and prevent spam, fraud, and abuse.
  • To secure registration, login, posting, contact forms, and other interactive areas.
  • To determine when to challenge, throttle, or block suspicious traffic.

C. Legal Basis & Sharing

  • GDPR Legal Basis: Our legitimate interests in securing the Forum and preventing abuse.
  • Service Provider: Google acts as a service provider that processes reCAPTCHA data to provide risk analysis.
  • No Sale: We do not sell or rent personal information collected via reCAPTCHA.

  • You may disable cookies or use browser privacy features; however, reCAPTCHA may rely on certain signals and features may not work properly without them.
  • If you do not want your data to be processed by reCAPTCHA, please refrain from using interactive areas of the Forum.
