The Font Finder
LEGAL & PRIVACY

Privacy Policy

Last updated: September 2026. Your privacy is fundamental to our architecture.

🔒100% Client-Side Browser Privacy Guarantee

Unlike traditional online font identifiers, The Font Finder processes all uploaded images, screenshots, and cropped text samples entirely inside your web browser RAM using HTML5 Canvas vector math. Your files are never uploaded to any remote server or stored in any database.

1. Information We Do Not Collect

Because our core matching engine runs locally on your device, we explicitly do not collect, process, transmit, or store:

  • Uploaded image files, logo graphics, or website screenshots.
  • Cropped text specimens or extracted visual character vectors.
  • Personal identification details (names, physical addresses, or passwords).
  • Personal user accounts or login credentials (no registration required).

2. Local Browser Storage & Cookies

We use minimal local browser storage (localStorage) strictly to deliver essential user experience features:

  • Theme Preference: We store your chosen color theme selection (light or dark) so the website displays in your preferred style on subsequent visits.

We do not use tracking cookies, advertising cookies, or cross-site profiling trackers.

3. Web Performance & Analytics

To monitor website reliability, page load performance, and operational health, we may utilize privacy-friendly, anonymized web analytics tools. These services collect only aggregated metric data (such as page view counts, country of origin, and browser type) without identifying individual users or tracking personal activity across websites.

4. Third-Party Links & External Fonts

Our website includes outbound links to third-party foundries and open-source font repositories, such as Google Fonts, MyFonts, and Adobe Fonts. When you click an external link or download a free font family:

  • You are directed to the respective third-party website, which operates under its own independent privacy policy and terms.
  • Font previews rendered live on our site load stylesheet assets directly from fonts.googleapis.com in accordance with Google's public privacy policies.

5. GDPR & CCPA Compliance

Because we do not store personal data or transmit image files to remote servers, users under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) enjoy inherent data privacy. You retain 100% ownership and control of all image data processed on your local device.

6. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update our Privacy Policy periodically to reflect technological improvements or regulatory adjustments. Any changes will be posted directly on this page with an updated revision date.
