This is in any case the IP address of the requesting computer, in some cases also other information. According to the ECJ, the dynamic IP address belongs to personal data. This means that the use of Google Fonts via integration is subject to the DSGVO and requires a legal basis. Without prior information and consent of the users, such data transfer to a third country may not take place (Article 7 DSGVO).<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>In the case of an online integration of the font, however, the website cannot be displayed with the advance information without the font already being used and the data transfer already taking place before consent is given. Google also does not disclose which data is processed for which purpose by whom, whether it is combined with other data and how long it is stored &#8211; especially if a Google account is logged in (Android operating systems!). However, this information is mandatory for a legally valid user consent &#8211; as well as an opt-out option, which the font integration does not offer. Thus, no DSGVO-compliant use of Google Fonts in the form of an embedded link is possible.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>The Munich Regional Court did not accept the convenience of the programmers, who save a lot of time and costs by linking Google Fonts, as a legitimate interest under Article 6(1f) DSGVO. And also by the typical cookie banner this consent is not &#8220;included&#8221;, because the fonts usually do not use cookies. Thus, the user must explicitly consent to the use of Google Fonts and the associated data transfer to the USA, which is not required according to the court, in order to create a legal basis.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a2228ae elementor-widget elementor-widget-shortcode\" data-id=\"a2228ae\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"shortcode.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-shortcode\">\t\t<div data-elementor-type=\"container\" data-elementor-id=\"3732\" class=\"elementor elementor-3732 elementor-1607 elementor-1607\" data-elementor-post-type=\"elementor_library\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1dac4a61 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"1dac4a61\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_list&quot;:[]}\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1c35b7fc e-con-full e-flex e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"1c35b7fc\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;jet_parallax_layout_list&quot;:[]}\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-411ab3e1 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"411ab3e1\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Check your Website Compliance<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1befbb37 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"1befbb37\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Take the test with our free quick scanner!<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-aa1fe08 elementor-widget elementor-widget-html\" data-id=\"aa1fe08\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"html.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"quickcheck-startseite\">\n    <input type=\"text\" id=\"cookieboxInput\" placeholder=\"my-website.com\">\n        <button class=\"qc-button\" onclick=\"openInNewTab()\"> Scan now!<\/button>\n<\/div>\n    \n<script>\n    function openInNewTab() {\n     window.open(\"https:\/\/quickcheck.cookiebox.pro\/?fetch_url=\" + document.getElementById(\"cookieboxInput\").value, '_blank').focus();\n    }\n\n    function changePlaceholder() {\n    var input = document.getElementById(\"cookieboxInput\");\n     var temp = \"my-website.com\";\n    var index = 0;\n     input.placeholder = \"\";\n\n    setInterval(() => {\n     if (input.placeholder != \"my-website.com\") {\n          input.placeholder += temp[index];\n         index++;\n     }\n     else {\n      input.placeholder = \"\";\n       index = 0;\n    }\n    }, 300);\n}\n\n\n\nvar aText =\"my-website.com\"\n        var iSpeed = 160;

There even exists a utility, Google Webfonts Helper, for downloading the fonts and capping the server connection to Google (example for WordPress).<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>Important to know:<br \/>An entry in your privacy policy is mandatory (if you collect personal data yourself via Google Fonts). Local hosting could have an effect on search engine optimization and also on the initial page load times. However, tests have not found any major effect. Also, the whole kapp process has to be repeated if there is an update of the font &#8211; but this is rather rare.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1d80efd e-con-full e-flex e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"1d80efd\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_list&quot;:[]}\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-cbebb6f elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"cbebb6f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">The Font-Check<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ffb40c5 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"ffb40c5\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<ol><li>Does my website use Google Fonts at all?<\/li><li>If so, is the usage configured to be purely local, with no retrieval from the US?<\/li><li>If the link binding cannot be changed: Can I replace the font with a similar font without privacy issues, preferably locally?<\/li><\/ol><p>If no replacement is possible, you need to add a custom Consent tool that asks for consent to use Google Fonts and transfer data to a third country, upstream of this.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-624b652 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"624b652\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Goodie: Important Cookie Box Note<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-560fe26 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"560fe26\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>If other licensed fonts are to be used as replacement fonts, always check the license terms beforehand to see whether they permit use on websites at all.
