Captcha

Captcha: a well-known tool for protecting your bot from robots, and administrators from spam. In @MenuBuilderBot has 2 types of captchas that can be used to check for new users and for the protection of the individual menu items.


What is Captcha


Captcha - it is a digital picture or any other type of a puzzle the main goal of which is to tell computer and human users apart, preventing any automated activity of robots such as registration or performing actions instead of user on protected resource.

Captcha in @MenuBuilderBot helps to restrict access of robots, not allowing them to cheat indicators of the referral system, and offers such a task (in the form of distorted letters or pictures) that can be easily solved by a human, but to some extent difficult or resource consuming for a computer.

Functionality of "🧩Extensions" section: the function must be activated in your bot before use.

Captcha.
To connect, go in your bot:
☞ 🔐Admin | 🧩Extensions | 📂Protection

Captcha settings
After purchasing the captcha, in the bot settings
☞ 🔐Admin | ⚙️Bot settings
The «Captcha» section will appear.

IMPORTANT: If captcha is ON for the particular case - no person will be considered as bot's user unless captcha is solved.
Nobody get any payments, bonuses or any other types of benefits what so ever, neither user himself, nor his referral parent - unless captcha is solved by new user, whether he came by referral link or not, if captcha is enabled for his type of case.


At the moment, there are 2 types of captchas that differ in appearance.

IMPORTANT: The Service is provided by a Third Party and the terms and conditions of its provision do not depend on us. In this regard, the Service is provided "as is" as long as we ourselves are able to access the Service on the existing terms. In the event that a Third Party's terms and conditions change, we reserve the right to change our terms and conditions.

Thus, the feature may be disabled at any time and the terms and conditions we currently use to provide it may be reviewed and changed with or without notice.
