Lead forms (B11)

Spam / captcha

This page explains what this scan check measures. It is not legal advice or a compliance verdict.

What this check is

This check notes spam protection such as CAPTCHA or similar challenges on the lead form path.

Why WordPress sites show it

WordPress sites add reCAPTCHA, hCaptcha, or Cloudflare challenges to cut bot spam.

Realistic impact

Strong spam controls are useful, but they can also block automated verification. The finding describes what the scan encountered, not whether spam settings are wrong.

How to verify a fix

Provide a QA path or temporarily ease the challenge for verified testing, then re-scan the form journey.
