Simple Process

How It Works

A straightforward, privacy-focused approach to CAPTCHA verification

Flexible Hosting Options

You can either self-host the API on your own servers for complete control, or request hosting by us for a hassle-free experience. Both options maintain the same privacy standards with no data collection.

Simple API Request

Your website or frontend makes a simple API call to the CAPTCHA service to request a challenge image. This requires minimal code and creates no performance impact on your application.

Display the CAPTCHA

The image is received as base64 and can be displayed on any page, alongside a secret token. This approach works with any frontend framework or vanilla HTML/CSS/JS.

User Solves the CAPTCHA

The user views the CAPTCHA challenge on your website and enters their solution. This creates a natural, intuitive verification experience without hidden tracking or data collection.

Submit for Verification

When the user submits their solution, your frontend sends both the user's answer and the secret token to the verification endpoint. This maintains the integrity of the verification process.

Verification Result

The endpoint returns a simple success or error response. Based on this result, you can allow the user to proceed or request they try again. The entire process is completed with minimal overhead.

Privacy-First Approach

Throughout this entire process, there is:

  • No data collection of any kind
  • Minimal code and overhead
  • No performance impact on your website
  • No hidden data collection or distribution
  • Complete GDPR compliance by design

Why Genuine Captcha©

A revolutionary approach to CAPTCHA that prioritizes user privacy and GDPR compliance

Why another Captcha Solution?

Typical CAPTCHA solutions on the web, while maybe effective in distinguishing human users from bots, can raise several privacy concerns:

  • Most collect user data like IP addresses, mouse movements, and browsing patterns
  • Potentially aggregating privacy data for profiling or advertising
  • Using cookies or tracking technologies and therefore raising GDPR-related concerns
  • Many rely on third-party services, risking unwitting data sharing
  • Some use invasive methods like keystroke monitoring and might lack transparency about data usage and storage
  • The data gathered by CAPTCHA systems, if misused, could compromise user privacy

These issues underscore the need for more privacy-conscious CAPTCHA alternatives in web security.

Why Choose Genuine Captcha©? A Game-Changer in User Verification

Integrators of third-party CAPTCHA solutions should be aware of the potential legal challenges they might face regarding non-compliance with GDPR in Europe and similar data protection regulations. The collection and processing of personal data by CAPTCHA systems, if not handled in accordance with these laws, could lead to significant legal repercussions, including hefty fines and reputational damage.
