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

Mailchimp. If you add a Mailchimp API key in Global Settings and turn on Mailchimp for a form, the email address, first and last name and the tags you choose are sent to Mailchimp to add or update the person in your audience. The form can be set to only do this when a consent box is ticked. Terms | Privacy

Discord. If you turn on “Post new entries to Discord” for a form, a message with the submitted answers is posted to the Discord webhook address you enter. Terms | Privacy

Telegram. If you turn on “Send new entries to Telegram” for a form, a message with the submitted answers is sent through the Telegram Bot API (api.telegram.org) to the chat you enter. Terms | Privacy

Microsoft Teams. If you turn on “Post new entries to Microsoft Teams” for a form, a message with the submitted answers is posted to the Teams (Power Automate / Workflows) webhook address you enter. Terms | Privacy

Stop Forum Spam. If you turn on “Check with Stop Forum Spam” for a form, the visitor’s email address and IP address are sent to api.stopforumspam.org to check whether they are listed as a spammer. Terms and privacy
