<h3>External Services</h3>
<p>This plugin relies on external services to provide spam detection and geolocation features. Below is detailed information about each service:</p>
<h4>SpamBanana API (api.spambanana.com)</h4>
<p><strong>What it does:</strong> Analyzes comments using Machine Learning (Logistic Regression + TF-IDF) to detect spam.</p>
<p><strong>When data is sent:</strong> Every time a comment is submitted on your WordPress site (unless the user is logged in and you’ve disabled checking for logged-in users).</p>

* Continuously improve accuracy through centralized learning from millions of comments<br />

<p><strong>What data is sent:</strong><br />
* Visitor’s IP address only</p>

<p><strong>Honeypot Guard</strong> is a powerful, privacy-focused anti-spam solution that protects your WordPress forms without annoying your visitors with CAPTCHAs. Using invisible detection techniques, it blocks spam bots while maintaining a seamless user experience.</p>

<li><strong>Intelligent Gibberish Detection</strong> – Catches keyboard mashing and random text patterns</li>
<li><strong>Advanced Heuristic Analysis</strong> – Pattern-based detection of common spam characteristics</li>
