# TrustCaptcha for Rust — GDPR-compliant, privacy-first CAPTCHA
Protect websites and apps against bots and spam with a privacy-first, EU-hosted CAPTCHA solution.
## 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

3. **Embed the widget:** implement the TrustCaptcha widget into your website or app.
4. **Validate result:** validate the CAPTCHA verification result in your backend.

## Basic Rust integration
1. Install the dependency
```bash
cargo add trustcaptcha@^3.0
```
2. Retrieve the verification result
```rust
use trustcaptcha::trust_captcha::TrustCaptcha;
let trust_captcha = TrustCaptcha::builder("<your_api_key>").build()?;
let verification_result = match trust_captcha.get_verification_result("<verification_token_from_your_client>").await {
Ok(result) => result,
Err(e) => {
error!("Failed to fetch verification result: {}", e);
return Ok(HttpResponse::InternalServerError().json(json!({"error": "Captcha verification failed"})));
}
};
```
3. Act on the result
```rust
if !verification_result.verification_passed || verification_result.score > 0.5 {
info!("Verification failed or bot score > 0.5 – possible automated request.");
}
```
Congratulations — you have successfully validated the result of the CAPTCHA!
