The KillBot plugin for WordPress uses the external KillBot service to protect websites from bots and automated traffic.
-
What is this service, and what is it used for?
KillBot is an anti-bot system that analyzes traffic, detects bots, and can either block them or present a CAPTCHA. The plugin interacts with the KillBot service to check users for signs of automated behavior and detect the use of proxies or VPNs. -
What data is sent and when?
The plugin sends the following data to the KillBot server upon each new visit session:
– The window.navigator object
– The window.screen object
– The window object (excluding string-based parameter values)
Important: KillBot does not receive any personal user data, such as names, email addresses, or account identifiers.
