Hi Leon, am I mistaken or is your example site loading fonts (Poppins) from the Google api and therefore sending perosnal visitor data (IP address) to Google without their consent!? Or am I mistaken?

The difference between a tracker and a CDN is that the latter usually doesn't store the collected information.
