Cloudflare Turnstile Policy
Disability Destinations uses Cloudflare Turnstile as a security and verification tool to protect our platform from spam, bots, and fraudulent activity. Turnstile helps verify that actions such as form submissions and logins are performed by legitimate human users without requiring intrusive challenges.
Cloudflare Turnstile is provided by Cloudflare, Inc.
1. Why we use Cloudflare Turnstile
Turnstile is implemented across areas of our site to:
- Prevent automated spam and malicious form submissions
- Improve security for login and registration areas
- Protect website performance and stability
- Reduce fraudulent or abusive interactions
This allows us to maintain a safer and more reliable website experience for all visitors.
2. What data Turnstile collects
When you interact with or load a form protected by Cloudflare Turnstile, certain data may be collected automatically and sent to Cloudflare. This may include:
- IP address (anonymised where possible)
- Browser type, version, and device information
- System characteristics such as timezone, screen resolution, and language
- Interaction metadata such as time, duration, and behaviour patterns
- Cookies or tokens assigned by Cloudflare for session validation
Turnstile is designed to collect the minimum necessary information to determine whether a request is legitimate. Unlike traditional CAPTCHA systems, it does not require solving puzzles or input from users.

This processing is strictly for security and fraud prevention purposes.
