-If you do not accept Google's reCaptcha service you can still fully navigate our website, but you cannot create an account and submit or register audio.+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.\\
