A new version of the ECI Central Online Collection System (COCS) application has been released recently. It includes the brand-new EU Captcha (security module for checking whether the user is human) which is open source, multilingual and GDPR-compliant.
The new COCS also offers initiative organisers detailed statistics on the use of the system for the collection of signatures. The majority of open initiatives use COCS, and all new initiatives registered from 1 January 2023 will be required to use it.
