External services

FormGlut sends data to another service only when you set it up.

Webhooks. If you turn on “Send entries to a webhook” for a form, each submission is posted to the web address you enter (for example a Zapier, Make or n8n address). The data sent is the form name, entry ID, time, page address and the submitted answers. The service you choose is responsible for what it does with them.

Slack. If you turn on “Post new entries to Slack” for a form, a message with the submitted answers is posted to the Slack incoming webhook address you enter (https://hooks.slack.com/…). Terms | Privacy

Akismet. If you turn on “Check with Akismet” for a form and the Akismet plugin is active with an API key, the submitted answers, the visitor’s IP address and browser, and the page address are sent to Akismet to check for spam. Terms | Privacy

Google reCAPTCHA. If you add your reCAPTCHA keys in Global Settings and put a reCAPTCHA field on a form (or turn on “Protect every form”), the page loads Google’s reCAPTCHA script, which collects information about the visitor’s browser and behaviour, and the form sends the reCAPTCHA token and the visitor’s IP address to Google to check it. Terms | Privacy

hCaptcha. If you add your hCaptcha keys and put an hCaptcha field on a form, the page loads the hCaptcha widget and the form sends the hCaptcha token and the visitor’s IP address to hCaptcha to check it. Terms | Privacy

Cloudflare Turnstile. If you add your Turnstile keys and put a Turnstile field on a form, the page loads the Turnstile widget from Cloudflare and the form sends the Turnstile token and the visitor’s IP address to Cloudflare to check it. Terms | Privacy

Stripe. If you add your Stripe keys in Global Settings and put a Card Payment field on a form, the page loads Stripe.js and the card details go directly from the visitor’s browser to Stripe. The site sends Stripe the amount, currency, a description and the form ID to create the payment, and reads the payment status to confirm it. Terms | Privacy
