Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about DigitaleZen AntiSpam Shield for CF7

No. The plugin uses an automatic honeypot, signed timing token, rate limiting, and local adaptive blacklist matching.

No. The token and honeypot fields are inserted automatically through Contact Form 7 filters.

Only submissions classified as spam are logged. By default, the plugin stores the event time, form ID, detection reason, masked email/IP values, and site-HMAC identifiers. Administrators can choose full identity storage, change retention, export retained events, or delete them.

No. Deactivation only removes scheduled tasks. Data is deleted during plugin removal only when the administrator has explicitly enabled Delete all plugin data when the plugin is deleted.

No. Weekly CSV reports are opt-in and use the email address selected by an administrator.

No. The plugin creates and updates its signed JSON blacklist on the WordPress site itself. It makes no reputation or blacklist request to DigitaleZen, Google, or another provider.

Only high-confidence honeypot and repeated rate-limit signals add local reputation evidence. An identity is not promoted to the active blacklist until it reaches the learning threshold. Token errors alone never teach the blacklist, learned entries expire, and an administrator can reset learned reputation.
