Q: What about privacy? Does registration expose a11y browsing data in some way? What do you do with the email?Ī: hCaptcha is designed for privacy from the ground up.

However, this is not legal advice: you should perform your own evaluation, taking into consideration your particular implementation to ensure this is the case for your deployment. Q: Is hCaptcha Section 508 + WCAG 2.1 AA compliant?Ī: We believe so: all users with any form of impairment who are able to browse the web and enter text on forms can access services protected by hCaptcha upon registration.
