This information is sent to WeatherRoast by email so that we can read and respond to your enquiry.

Security and rate-limiting information

When you submit the contact form, your IP address is temporarily processed to prevent spam and repeated automated submissions.

The IP address is converted into a one-way hash for rate-limiting purposes. The readable IP address is not included in the contact email received by WeatherRoast.

The contact page also uses a temporary website session to protect the form and prevent duplicate or unauthorised submissions.

Cloudflare Turnstile

The contact form uses Cloudflare Turnstile to help distinguish genuine visitors from automated spam.

Turnstile may process technical information about your browser, device, network connection and interaction with the security check. Your form submission also includes a short-lived Turnstile verification token, which is sent to Cloudflare for validation.
