Contact Form 7 Image CAPTCHA, WPForms Image CAPTCHA, Form Spam Image CAPTCHA, GDPR Plugin

Add an SVG image captcha and honeypot to your Contact Form 7 or WPForms form. Based on our interpretation this CAPTCHA plugin is GDPR compliant because the images are inline SVGs and no download of external resources happens, in addition no cookies or other storing mechanisms are used on the user’s device, this plugin will not slow down your site with additional header requests like Google’s ReCAPTCHA and respects your users privacy.

Directions [PLEASE READ]

Contact Form 7:
Add the shortcode [cf7ic] to the form editor where you want the CAPTCHA to appear.

You can hide the CAPTCHA until a user interacts with the form, by adding “toggle” to the shortcode: [cf7ic “toggle”]

WPForms:
Just activate the CAPTCHA for WPForms on the plugin’s settings page.
