Captcha.eu vs. Google reCAPTCHA bei WordPress

Are you looking for a data protection-compliant and user-friendly alternative to Google reCAPTCHA? Here you can see why Captcha.eu is the more convincing solution for WordPress:

    • No user interaction required
      While reCAPTCHA relies on image puzzles or checkboxes, Captcha.eu runs completely in the background – without any clicks.
    • GDPR-compliant without cookie banners
      Captcha.eu does not use cookies or tracking and does not process any personal data – so no consent is required. With Google reCAPTCHA, consent is usually required according to the GDPR.
    • Hosting within the EU (Austria)
      All data remains in the EU – at Google, processing takes place on US servers.
    • Simple WordPress plugin
      Captcha.eu can be installed directly in the backend and protects logins, comments and forms – reCAPTCHA often requires additional configuration and external integration.
    • Accessible according to WCAG standards
      Captcha.eu is fully accessible – reCAPTCHA can be problematic for users with disabilities.
