External Service

This plugin connects to the Cloudflare Turnstile service to verify form submissions:

  • Cloudflare Turnstile API: https://challenges.cloudflare.com/turnstile/v0/siteverify
  • Cloudflare Turnstile JavaScript: https://challenges.cloudflare.com/turnstile/v0/api.js

When a user submits a form, their browser interaction data, IP address, and browser fingerprint are sent to Cloudflare for verification. This is required for the plugin to function.

  • Cloudflare Privacy Policy
  • Cloudflare Terms of Service

The plugin itself does not store personal data by default. IP address logging is opt-in and must be explicitly enabled in Settings.
