<h3>Third-Party Services</h3>
<h4>Google reCAPTCHA v3</h4>
What it is and what it’s used for: 
This plugin uses Google reCAPTCHA v3 to protect your contact forms from spam and abuse. reCAPTCHA v3 analyzes user behavior to detect whether a form submission is likely to be legitimate or spam. Unlike previous reCAPTCHA versions, v3 operates invisibly — your visitors won’t see a CAPTCHA challenge or checkbox. This plugin will only use Google reCAPTCHA if you a reCAPTCHA public and private key in the contact form settings section. If left empty, no data will be submitted but your forms wont be protected from spam aswell.
What data is sent and when: 
When a form with reCAPTCHA protection is submitted, the plugin sends the user’s reCAPTCHA token to Google’s servers. This token is generated automatically based on the user’s interaction with your site and the form. Google uses this data to analyze user behavior and assign a risk score to determine if the submission should be processed. The data sent includes: 
– The reCAPTCHA token 
– The action name (form submission) 
– The user’s IP address and browser information
