ALTCHA aims to provide a community-driven, open-source solution for modern, privacy-friendly data collection and security. ALTCHA Forms is designed to:
ALTCHA Forms is ideal for enterprises needing advanced security and regulatory compliance. Its open-source, self-hosted nature ensures full data control.
Regardless of size, ALTCHA Forms helps businesses comply with data privacy regulations, making operations safer and more efficient.
The open-source model suits non-profit organizations and NGOs, offering robust data collection without financial strain.
Even personal websites must comply with data privacy regulations. ALTCHA Forms simplifies compliance for individuals.
ALTCHA Forms includes several building blocks that simplify the creation of custom forms. Some use cases include:
ALTCHA's Encryption Shield is an automatic, user-friendly encryption system built on the asymmetric RSA algorithm. It secures all employee and customer data, including file attachments.
Submitted form data is encrypted on the server, after validation and processing, and stored in the database encrypted, protecting data from potential data breaches. File attachments are encrypted on the user's device, employing true end-to-end encryption. Only authorized devices with a valid encryption key can decrypt and access protected data.
ALTCHA Forms includes support for EU/eIDAS-compliant, legally binding, simple and advanced digital signatures. Simple signatures include hand-written signatures and scanned stamps; advanced signatures include qualified digital certificates (using a signed PDF file) and other formats such as DigiDoc which can be uploaded as attachments.
