This Cookie Policy explains how Fontish (“Fontish,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit fontish.com.
It should be read together with our Privacy Policy, which explains more broadly how we collect, use, share, and protect personal information.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that websites can place on or access through your browser or device.
They are commonly used to make websites work, remember preferences, maintain security, understand how visitors use a website, measure performance, and support advertising or marketing activities.
Some cookies last only for the duration of your browsing session and are deleted when you close your browser. Others may remain on your device for a defined period or until you delete them.
2. Similar Technologies
When this Cookie Policy refers to “cookies,” we may also be referring to similar technologies where appropriate.
These may include:
- local storage;
- pixels and web beacons;
- tags;
- scripts;
- device or browser identifiers; and
- other technologies that store information on, access information from, or recognize your browser or device.
These technologies can perform functions similar to cookies even though they do not necessarily operate in exactly the same way.
3. First-Party and Third-Party Cookies
Fontish may use both first-party and third-party cookies.
First-party cookies are set directly by Fontish or on the fontish.com domain. They may be used to operate the website, remember choices, maintain security, or support other Fontish functionality.
Third-party cookies are set or accessed by services provided by other organizations that Fontish uses or integrates with. These may include analytics, email, advertising, security, embedded-content, affiliate, or other service providers.
Third parties may process information collected through their technologies according to their own privacy policies and legal obligations.
4. Types of Cookies We May Use
The cookies and similar technologies used on Fontish may fall into the following categories.
Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are necessary for core website functions, security, network management, consent management, or other services you request.
They may be used for purposes such as:
- keeping the website secure;
- preventing fraud, abuse, or malicious activity;
- maintaining essential website functionality;
- remembering privacy or consent choices;
- supporting forms or requested services; and
- managing technical website operations.
Because these technologies are necessary to provide the website or a service you request, they may not always be subject to the same consent requirements as non-essential cookies.
Functional Cookies
Functional cookies help provide enhanced website features or remember choices you make.
They may, for example, remember certain preferences or settings so you do not have to select them again during later visits.
Disabling functional cookies may cause some optional website features to work differently or become unavailable.
Analytics and Performance Cookies
Fontish may use analytics and performance technologies to understand how visitors use the website.
These technologies may help us understand information such as:
- which pages are visited;
- how visitors arrive at Fontish;
- how long visitors spend on pages;
- which links or features are used;
- browser and device characteristics;
- approximate geographic information;
- website performance; and
- errors or technical problems.
We use this information to understand our audience, improve Fontish content and tools, diagnose technical issues, and improve website performance and usability.
Where required by applicable law, analytics cookies will not be activated until the appropriate consent has been obtained.
Email and Marketing Technologies
Fontish uses Brevo for email marketing, subscriber management, email automations, and delivery of resources such as the Typography Starter Kit.
Brevo may process information relating to the delivery and engagement of emails, depending on our configuration and applicable consent requirements.
If Fontish enables Brevo website-tracking functionality, Brevo may also use cookies or similar technologies to understand website activity and, in certain circumstances, associate that activity with an identified subscriber or contact.
Where such website tracking requires consent, it will be subject to the consent choices available on Fontish.
Email tracking and website cookie tracking are not necessarily the same thing. Additional information about how Fontish handles subscriber information and email communications is available in our Privacy Policy.
Advertising Cookies
Fontish may use third-party advertising services in the future, including services provided by Google or other advertising platforms.
If advertising services are enabled, advertising providers may use cookies, local storage, pixels, identifiers, and similar technologies to:
- serve advertisements;
- select advertisements;
- measure advertisement performance;
- understand interactions with advertisements;
- prevent advertising fraud and abuse;
- limit how often an advertisement is displayed;
- measure reach and effectiveness; and
- personalize advertisements where permitted by applicable law and your consent choices.
Advertising technologies may process information about your activity on Fontish and, depending on the provider and your privacy choices, activity associated with other websites or services.
Where consent is legally required, advertising cookies and similar technologies will be subject to the choices presented through our consent-management system.
Depending on your location, consent choices, and the advertising services involved, advertisements may be personalized, non-personalized, contextual, or otherwise limited.
Affiliate Tracking Technologies
Some Fontish content may contain affiliate links.
When you click an affiliate link, the relevant merchant, affiliate network, or other partner may use cookies or similar technologies to record that you were referred by Fontish.
These technologies can help determine whether a click results in a purchase or other qualifying action for which Fontish may receive compensation.
The duration and operation of affiliate cookies depend on the individual affiliate program or provider.
More information about our commercial relationships is available in our Affiliate Disclosure.
5. Google Analytics and Other Analytics Services
Fontish may use Google Analytics and other analytics services to measure and understand website usage.
Depending on the service and its configuration, analytics technologies may process information such as:
- pages viewed;
- events and interactions;
- session information;
- referral sources;
- browser and device information;
- approximate location; and
- technical or cookie identifiers.
We use analytics data to understand how Fontish performs and to make informed decisions about our content, tools, website design, and user experience.
Where applicable law requires consent for analytics cookies or similar technologies, they will be activated only according to the consent choices available to you.
6. Advertising and Google Services
Fontish may participate in advertising programs such as Google AdSense or use other Google advertising services in the future.
If these services are enabled, Google and other advertising technology providers may use cookies or similar technologies to deliver and measure advertising.
Where applicable, these technologies may be used for purposes including ad delivery, frequency capping, aggregated ad reporting, fraud prevention, measurement, and ads personalization.
Where required by applicable law, Fontish will request appropriate consent before cookies or similar technologies are used for advertising purposes.
For users in jurisdictions where additional consent requirements apply, Fontish may use a consent management platform to communicate privacy choices to Google and participating advertising technology providers.
The advertising technologies actually used on Fontish may change as our advertising relationships and services change.
7. Consent Management
Where required by applicable law, Fontish will provide a cookie or consent-management interface that allows visitors to make choices about non-essential cookies and similar technologies.
Depending on your location and the technologies currently used on Fontish, you may be able to:
- accept non-essential cookies;
- reject non-essential cookies;
- select particular categories of cookies;
- consent to or reject certain advertising purposes or providers; and
- change or withdraw previously provided consent.
Strictly necessary technologies may continue to operate where they are required to provide the website, maintain security, remember your privacy choices, or provide a service you have requested.
Withdrawing consent does not make processing that occurred before withdrawal unlawful.
8. European Economic Area, United Kingdom, and Switzerland
Visitors located in the European Economic Area, United Kingdom, or Switzerland may be presented with additional consent controls.
Where required, Fontish will request consent before non-essential cookies or similar technologies are stored on or accessed from your device.
If Fontish uses advertising services that require participation in an approved consent framework, our consent-management system may transmit your consent choices to participating advertising technology providers.
You should be able to change or withdraw applicable consent choices through the privacy or cookie controls made available on Fontish.
9. United States Privacy Choices
Certain U.S. state privacy laws may provide residents with rights concerning targeted advertising, the sale or sharing of personal information, or similar activities.
Depending on the technologies Fontish uses and whether applicable law requires it, we may provide mechanisms that allow eligible visitors to opt out of certain advertising or data-processing activities.
Some advertising and analytics technologies may fall within broad statutory definitions of “sale,” “sharing,” or “targeted advertising” even when Fontish does not receive money in exchange for personal information.
Fontish does not sell its email subscriber list or contact information to data brokers.
10. How to Manage Cookies
You may have several ways to control cookies and similar technologies.
Fontish Cookie Controls
Where available, you can use Fontish's cookie or privacy controls to manage your choices regarding non-essential cookies.
Changing your preferences may not remove cookies that were already stored on your device. You may need to remove those cookies through your browser settings.
Browser Controls
Most browsers allow you to:
- view stored cookies;
- delete cookies;
- block particular cookies;
- block third-party cookies;
- block all cookies; or
- receive notifications when websites attempt to set cookies.
The exact controls depend on the browser and device you use.
Blocking all cookies may cause parts of Fontish or other websites to function incorrectly.
Third-Party Controls
Some analytics, advertising, and other third-party providers offer their own privacy settings or opt-out mechanisms.
Those controls are operated by the relevant third party and may be subject to its own privacy policies and procedures.
11. Privacy Preference Signals
Some browsers and extensions can transmit privacy preference signals intended to communicate a user's choice regarding certain types of data processing.
Where applicable law requires Fontish to recognize a supported legally valid privacy preference signal, we will endeavor to process that signal as required.
Browser-based privacy signals are separate from ordinary cookie-blocking settings, and not every signal has the same legal effect in every jurisdiction.
12. How Long Cookies Last
Cookie duration varies according to the purpose of the cookie and the provider responsible for it.
Cookies may be:
Session cookies, which generally expire when you close your browser; or
Persistent cookies, which remain for a specified period or until they are deleted.
Third-party providers determine the lifespan of cookies they control and may change those durations as their technologies or services evolve.
Where our consent-management interface provides information about specific cookies, purposes, providers, and durations, that information should be treated as the more current technical description of the cookies detected or configured on Fontish.
13. Third-Party Websites
Fontish contains links to third-party websites, including font providers, design services, tools, marketplaces, affiliate partners, and other resources.
When you leave Fontish and visit another website, that website may place its own cookies or use other tracking technologies.
Fontish does not control cookies placed independently by websites you visit after leaving Fontish.
You should review the privacy and cookie policies of those websites if you want to understand their practices.
14. Changes to the Cookies We Use
The technologies used by Fontish may change as we add, remove, or update website features, analytics services, email functionality, advertising partners, affiliate programs, security services, and other providers.
As a result, the specific cookies used on Fontish may change over time.
Where available, our consent-management interface may provide a more current technical list of cookies and providers detected on the website.
We may also update this Cookie Policy when our practices or applicable legal requirements materially change.
15. Changes to This Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy periodically to reflect changes to Fontish, the technologies we use, our service providers, advertising or affiliate relationships, or applicable legal requirements.
When we update this policy, we will revise the “Last updated” date at the top of the page.
We encourage you to review this Cookie Policy periodically.
