"Confirming you're a person": the check page
Before you reach the website, Netvaer Proxy asks for a quick confirmation. Why that happens and how the check works.
Some websites protect themselves from automated access: programs that fetch pages in bulk, abuse forms or scrape data. In that case you'll see the page "Confirming you're a person" before your first visit.
How the check works
- Click the box "Verify you are human". With a keyboard, press Tab to reach it, then Space or Enter.
- "Verifying…" appears while your browser solves a small calculation. This usually takes just a few seconds.
- When you see "Success!", you're taken on to the page you wanted.
What is checked
Besides the calculation, the proxy looks at how the page was used, for example whether a mouse moved or a key was pressed. It only receives flags and small numbers. It doesn't see what you type or anything else you do in your browser.
Afterwards
After a successful check, you get a pass for this website, this browser and your current internet address. It lasts 30 minutes by default; the operator can change that. During that time you won't see the check page again.
