<h3>Third-Party Service Integration</h3>
⚠️ IMPORTANT: External Service Usage
This plugin integrates with Google reCAPTCHA service to provide spam protection and bot detection. By using this plugin, you acknowledge that it will communicate with Google’s servers to verify CAPTCHA responses.
What data is sent to Google reCAPTCHA: 
– User’s IP address 
– Browser fingerprint data (collected by Google’s reCAPTCHA script) 
– User interaction patterns (mouse movements, timing, etc.) 
– The reCAPTCHA response token generated by user interaction
When data is sent: 
– Every time a user submits a form protected by reCAPTCHA 
– During key verification checks in the admin panel 
– When loading reCAPTCHA scripts on protected pages
Google reCAPTCHA Service Links: 
– Terms of Service: https://developers.google.com/terms/ 
– Privacy Policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy 
– reCAPTCHA Terms: https://www.google.com/recaptcha/intro/terms.html 
– reCAPTCHA Privacy: https://policies.google.com/privacy#infocollect
Purpose of External Service: 
Google reCAPTCHA is essential for distinguishing between human users and automated bots. This service analyzes user behavior patterns and interaction data to determine if form submissions are legitimate. Without this integration, the plugin cannot provide spam protection functionality.
Data Processing: 
All data sent to Google is processed according to Google’s privacy policy. No sensitive form data (passwords, personal information) is sent to Google – only the reCAPTCHA response tokens and standard verification data.
User Consent: 
By enabling reCAPTCHA on your forms, you are responsible for informing your users about this third-party integration according to your local privacy laws (GDPR, CCPA, etc.).

<h3>🚀 Want More? Upgrade to CF7 Captcha Pro</h3>
This free version gives you solid CAPTCHA protection. But the smartest bots are already solving CAPTCHAs.
CF7 Captcha Pro adds six extra layers of invisible spam defense on top of what you already have here, plus a full set of tools to capture and act on every lead your forms collect.
<h3>What you get with Pro</h3>
6-Layer Spam Defense — stops 99.9% of spam without ever bothering your visitors: 
– Advanced Honeypot — invisible trap fields with names that regenerate every 24 hours. 
– Time Limit Validation — bots submit in 0.2 seconds. Humans take 15–30. This blocks anything that moves too fast (or stays too long). 
– Rate Limiting — caps submissions per IP so bot networks can’t flood your inbox or burn through your email quota. 
– Geographic Blocking — whitelist only the countries you serve, or blacklist known spam regions. 
– IP Pattern Blocking — block single IPs, wildcards, CIDR ranges, or entire subnets when you know exactly where an attack is coming from. 
– Word Filter — scans every submission for spam keywords, phishing URLs, and known scam phrases before it reaches you.
Lead Recovery — 70% of people who start filling out a form never submit it. Pro captures their data in real-time as they type, so you can follow up on leads that would otherwise vanish.
Database Storage & Export — every submission is saved with full metadata (IP, browser, referrer, timestamp). Export to CSV, Excel, JSON, or PDF whenever you need it. No more lost leads if your email fails.
Webhooks — send form data instantly to any URL. Connect to Zapier, Salesforce, Slack, Google Sheets, or any custom API. Multiple webhooks per form, with retry logic built in.
Mailchimp Integration — submissions automatically added to your Mailchimp lists. Field mapping, tags, opt-in handling.
Twilio SMS — receive instant alerts for every submission or send automated SMS replies to your clients.
Comprehensive Logging — every spam block, webhook call, and integration event is logged. Debug any issue in minutes instead of hours.
