No data from this service is stored in your WordPress database. * **Service provider:** ipapi.co (Kloudend, Inc.) * **Terms of Service:** [https://ipapi.co/terms/](https://ipapi.co/terms/) * **Privacy Policy:** [https://ipapi.co/privacy/](https://ipapi.co/privacy/) #### CAPTCHA Services (Opt-In Only) If you choose to enable a third-party CAPTCHA service in **FormsKit Settings**, the following external scripts will be loaded on pages containing your forms.
