  Why do we use web form security?

The 'captcha' system helps to protect our website from malicious activity.

We recommend that before submitting a form, you refresh the code until you receive one that is easy for you to read.

The code may be refreshed as many times as you like.

  • Please type the security codes, the codes must match those displayed.
  • If your get the code wrong and receive an error, please use your web browsers BACK button to return to the information you have entered.
  • Please use the 'reload' button to receive a new set of codes. Reloading the code will not clear your data.

The 'captcha' system is industry best-practice and, importantly, it is accessible to people with impaired sight.

  • It is highly reputable and cost-effective.
  • Many of its competitors are said to be easy to defeat.
  • It conforms to a plain text format.
  • It allows for IP address filtering and detection.

As a bonus, by entering the validation codes, you are helping to digitise books, newspapers and old time radio shows.
