How do CAPTCHAs work without giving you a challenge task?

I have noticed that some CAPTCHA pages, like Cloudflare's, simply ask you to check a box to proceed. There is no clicking on traffic lights or entering characters. How does clicking on a check box tell them I am not a robot?

  • Slight tangent, but if you want to pass the "click on all the images with traffic lights" first time, select one that's obviously wrong then go back and "change your mind" computers don't do that and 9/10 times it'll pass you first time!
