Configuration Options

Option	Values	Description
`Theme`	`light, dark, auto`	Colours of every visible part of the widget: the verification box, the badge and the challenge dialog. 'auto' follows the visitor's light or dark setting.
`displayMode`	`invisible, checkbox, turnstile`	How the check appears to the visitor: 'invisible' only asks on suspicious behaviour, 'checkbox' shows a reCAPTCHA-style box, 'turnstile' a compact badge. The protection is the same in all three.
`size`	`normal, compact, flexible`	Width of the visible verification box (checkbox, compact): 'normal' as the style defines it, 'compact' 230 px, 'flexible' the full form width. No effect in the invisible style.
`Language`	`auto or language code`	CAPTCHA language. Supports 25 languages. 'auto' detects the browser language.
`Position`	`inline, bottomRight, bottomLeft`	Where the 'Protected by SilentShield' badge sits in the invisible style: 'inline' below each protected form, 'bottomRight'/'bottomLeft' once per page in that corner. The visible verification box always stays at the form.
`Badge Mode`	`visible, hidden, minimized`	Visibility of the branding badge
`Brand Color`	`Hex code (e.g. #6366f1)`	Primary accent color of the widget
`Custom CSS`	`CSS code`	Custom styling for the widget (Pro plan and above)
`Hide Branding`	`On / Off`	Remove the 'Protected by SilentShield' badge (Pro plan and above)
`Zero-PII Mode`	`On / Off`	Disables browser fingerprinting. Only behavioral signals are used for bot detection. Recommended for healthcare, government, and financial forms. See Features → Zero-PII Mode for details.
