Bot protection without tracking
Three concrete benefits with InfoPeak Captcha.
Hosted in the EU
Not reCAPTCHA, hCaptcha or Turnstile. No data sent to Google or US ad networks.
No cookies on the visitor's device
Proof-of-work confirms a real browser. No fingerprinting and no cookie consent for the captcha.
No clicks for humans
No traffic lights and no blurry images. Verification runs quietly while the form is filled in.
Moving over takes minutes
Coming from reCAPTCHA, hCaptcha or Turnstile, you swap the script, the widget element and one address on your server. The code that checks tokens stays as it is. The docs walk through every line.
