Why Google Fonts Matter for Privacy
When a website loads Google Fonts from fonts.googleapis.com, the visitor's IP address is sent to Google servers. Under GDPR (especially in Germany and the EU), this can require explicit consent or self-hosting the fonts locally. Our checker lets you verify which fonts are loaded externally in seconds.
Frequently Asked Questions
What counts as an "external" Google Fonts request?
Any font loaded via a URL starting with fonts.googleapis.com or fonts.gstatic.com. These requests go to Google servers and expose the visitor's IP.
Can I self-host Google Fonts instead?
Yes. Download the font files from Google Fonts and host them on your own server. Use a @font-face declaration pointing to your own domain - no external request is made.
Does this tool check all pages of a website?
No - it scans the specific URL you enter. For a full audit, check your most important pages individually.
Is this tool free?
Yes, completely free. No account required.
