How to Enable Email Address Obfuscation in Cloudflare

Email Address Obfuscation in Cloudflare helps protect your email addresses from being harvested by bots, while still keeping them visible and functional for human visitors. Here’s how to enable it on your website:


Step 1: Log in to Your Cloudflare Account

  1. Go to https://dash.cloudflare.com/ and log in to your Cloudflare account.

Step 2: Select Your Domain

  1. On your Cloudflare dashboard, you’ll see a list of all domains under Your Sites.
  2. Click on the domain for which you want to enable email address obfuscation.

Step 3: Access the Scrape Shield Section

  1. In the domain settings, look for the Scrape Shield option in the left sidebar.
  2. Click on Scrape Shield to access content protection tools.

Step 4: Enable Email Address Obfuscation

  1. Under Scrape Shield, find Email Address Obfuscation.
  2. Toggle the switch to Enable. This activates obfuscation for all email addresses on your website, making them appear in a protected format to bots.

Optional: Customize Email Address Obfuscation

If customization options are available, configure them to fit your needs. Cloudflare will automatically obscure email addresses in your website’s HTML, ensuring that only legitimate users can view the full address.


That’s it! With Email Address Obfuscation enabled, Cloudflare will mask all visible email addresses on your site to prevent harvesting by bots, while keeping them fully visible for real visitors.
