Before you begin

Recaptcha is a proprietary technology developed by Google. Recaptcha's client-side code is neutrally included as part of Violet Rails to implement Recaptcha challenges on a per-application basis. Before use please see Google's privacy: https://policies.google.com/privacy and Terms of Service: https://policies.google.com/terms

I don't like the default Recaptcha branding on the API Form, can I change it?

Google has some specific rules, we will yield to them on this matter hiding recaptch badge
