+ | ===== Captcha ===== | ||
+ | We have implemented our own Captcha service to prevent spam and abuse for new account registration and registering audio. Unfortunately this is necessary to be able to cope with the many spam attacks which are common these days. Our Captcha service displays a small icon at the lower right corner of the pages where it is active. We do not rely on any external services for our Captcha protection, which is fully covered by our Privacy Policy.\\ | ||
+ | \\ | ||
+ | Our Captcha service aims at telling humans apart from machines when filling out forms. If a form entry is recognized to be performed by a machine (e.g. bot) then the IP address will be registered and entered into a black list, so no further connection to our websites is possible from that IP address. When humans fill out forms no IP addresses are recorded.\\ | ||
+ | \\ | ||
+ | If you do not accept our Captcha service you can still fully navigate our website, but you cannot create an account and submit or register audio. | ||
