End User Privacy Notice

Trustcaptcha is a CAPTCHA service used to protect websites and applications from automated spam, bot attacks and other malicious activities.

Definitions

End user

A person who visits or uses a website or service that has implemented Trustcaptcha as part of its security measures.

Service user (data controller)

A company or organisation that has implemented Trustcaptcha on its website or application. As data controller, the service user is responsible for the data processing and informing end users about their privacy practices.

Data processor

Trustcaptcha GmbH acts as data processor and processes the data on behalf of the service user.

How does Trustcaptcha work?

Unlike traditional CAPTCHA services, Trustcaptcha is designed to work completely in the background, with no complex image puzzles or excessive user challenges. When an end user starts the CAPTCHA verification, the user's device automatically solves a cryptographic puzzle in the background to verify the request. At the same time, Trustcaptcha analyses information to calculate an individual trust score for each request.

What we do

  • Trustcaptcha processes the data for the Service user. The data is analysed to differentiate between bots and humans and to protect websites and applications.
  • The personal data is only stored only for as long as is necessary to verify the CAPTCHA requests and to improve the threat detection. Once processing is complete, personal data is deleted or anonymised.

What we do not do

  • Trustcaptcha does not analyse any content that you enter on a website, but only processes the data required for security purposes.
  • The end user data processed by Trustcaptcha is not used for marketing purposes.
