What is reCAPTCHA?
reCAPTCHA is an anti-bot service provided by Google that analyzes user behavior patterns to determine whether a user is a human or a bot. reCAPTCHA can be used by Jicoo to prevent spam on booking and contact forms.
Version of reCAPTCHA
The version of reCAPTCHA that can be used with Jicoo is v3. reCAPTCHA v3 returns a score for each request without burdening the user. This score is calculated based on the actions taken on the site, so that appropriate action can be taken on the site.
