This analysis begins automatically as soon as the visitor to the website or mobile app enters a part of the website or app with hCaptcha activated. For the analysis, hCaptcha evaluates various information (e.g. IP address, duration of the visitor’s stay on the website or app or mouse movements of the user). The data collected during the analysis is forwarded to IMI. The hCaptcha analysis in “invisible mode” can take place completely in the background.

The data processing is based on Art. 6(1)(f) of the DSGVO: The operator of the website or mobile app has a legitimate interest in protecting its website from abusive automated crawling and spam. IMI acts as a “data processor” acting on behalf of its customers within the meaning of the GDPR and as a “service provider” within the meaning of the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA).
