      IP and Email address hashing coming soon

      More and more users are concerned about the privacy of the data they send through forms on websites. Sometimes this can lead to forms not being submitted if there is no assurance that the data is completely private.

      So, in the next few months, we are adding the option to hash IP/Email addresses of website visitors when sending this data to the cloud.

      That ensures that all personal data sent via different WordPress forms is fully protected by the Anti-Spam service and will definitely never be seen by anyone. Changes will affect the most popular forms and CMS.

    • CleanTalk is Ending Support of the Anti-Spam Service for Shopify

      CleanTalk is Ending Support of the Anti-Spam Service for Shopify

      The CleanTalk company informs you, our clients, that starting on December 12, 2022, we will stop providing and supporting the Anti-Spam service for Shopify.

      The CleanTalk Anti-Spam service for Shopify was launched for testing the anti-spam protection features for free. To our regret we can not provide our full protection because of technical limitations.

      The Shopify system limits app developers and there are no tools to use our own JavaScript code as well as no access to receive other technical parameters of websites. This is the reason why our service can not collect necessary parameters for the full protection from spam so the CleanTalk service works only partially and for now it’s impossible to implement the anti-spam protection for some website forms.

      On December 12, 2022 our Anti-Spam plugin for Shopify will stop functioning, therefore we recommend deleting it and installing another app.

      We hope for your understanding and if situation changes then we will come back to developing and supporting our fully functional protection from spam for Shopify.

      We appreciate that you were with us and trusted us to protect your websites!

      If you have any questions, please send us a ticket.
