Why Switch?

Google Fonts

PRIVACY CONCERNS

2 separate endpoints (fonts.googleapis.com & fonts.gstatic.com)
CSS files are not minified (larger file sizes)
Shares user IP addresses with Google
Violates GDPR in many EU countries
Only uses gzip compression

Generated CSS:

@font-face {
  font-family: 'Inter';
  src: url(https://fonts.gstatic.com/...)
       format('woff2');
}

fonts.upset.dev

PRIVACY PROTECTED

Single endpoint for both CSS & fonts (fonts.upset.dev only)
Optimized and minified CSS (smaller file sizes)
Hides your visitors' IP addresses from Google
Fully compliant with EU privacy regulations
Uses modern Brotli & zstd compression

Generated CSS:

@font-face {
  font-family: 'Inter';
  src: url(/f/inter/v12/...)
       format('woff2');
}

Why fonts.upset.dev?

Understanding the privacy implications

The Privacy Problem

When you use Google Fonts directly, every visitor sends their IP address, browser information, and referring page to Google's servers. Several EU courts have ruled that using Google Fonts violates GDPR.

Our Solution

fonts.upset.dev acts as a privacy-preserving proxy. We fetch the fonts from Google on your behalf, so your visitors' data never reaches Google. A simple, drop-in solution.
