Hi @infonetzlichtcom
I really appreciate the opportunity to clarify here. I’ve made a screencast showing you a method of never loading fonts from external sources on the front end of the site. You can view that screencast here:
password: fonts
https://screencast-o-matic.com/watch/c3jbDOVTQ4b
I’ve also added your vote and comment to this feedback post on our site: https://feedback.givewp.com/feature-requests/p/global-option-for-font-loading
That feature request has not seen a lot of votes, but I agree it would be handy to have a site-wide setting for disabling those fonts. Vote and comment there.
As for a consent policy, I’d highly recommend that you add a note to your privacy page included by default in WordPress. You can see it at example.com/wp-admin/options-privacy.php?tab=policyguide (replacing example.com with your site URL)
Given the workaround above, you’d only need to gain consent from logged-in users for connecting to that font server, but you could also add it to the front end if you prefer to use the Donor Dashboard and other features of GiveWP that load fonts from external resources.
I do think our response in the support forum could have been more clear, and I appreciate the opportunity to clarify. Hopefully this clarification can earn back some of the stars you left off of your rating!
