# TrustCaptcha for Rust
Protect websites and apps against bots and spam with a privacy-first, EU-hosted CAPTCHA solution.
> ⚠️ **DEPRECATED**
> This package has been renamed and is now maintained as [`trustcaptcha`](https://crates.io/crates/trustcaptcha) (version 2.0.0 or above).
## What is TrustCaptcha?
TrustCaptcha combines proof-of-work, an AI bot-score and custom security rules to stop automated bot abuse — without image marking or puzzles
Key perks:
- **Privacy-friendly & GDPR-compliant** – data processed exclusively in Europe
- **No visual challenges** – users never label images or solve quizzes
- **Fully themable widget** – matches any brand and design and improves your user flow
- **Conversion-safe** – near-zero user drop-off compared to legacy CAPTCHAs
