Description

Do you need a secure layer over your registration process to prevent malicious site interactions? Secure User Registration is a reliable security solution designed to protect both standard and WooCommerce user registrations against CSRF attacks and bot registrations. It includes advanced features such as custom nonce implementation, email or domain blocking, and Google reCAPTCHA integration.

Features include:
– CSRF protection for user and WooCommerce registration forms.
– Enable or disable custom nonce fields for registration forms.
– Block specific emails or domains using a comma-separated list.
– Integrate Google reCAPTCHA to mitigate bot registrations.
– Customize error messages for invalid nonce, email/domain blocklist, and captcha errors.

External Services

This plugin integrates with Google reCAPTCHA to protect your site from spam and abuse.

What the service is and what it is used for:
Google reCAPTCHA is a free service that helps protect websites from spam and abuse by using advanced risk analysis techniques to tell humans and bots apart.

What data is sent and when:
When a user interacts with the registration form where reCAPTCHA is enabled, the following data is collected and sent to Google:

  • User’s IP address
  • Browser and device information
  • Cookies
  • Mouse movements and keystrokes while interacting with the reCAPTCHA widget

This data is collected by Google when the reCAPTCHA challenge is displayed or solved, to determine whether the user is a human or a bot.
