I’m currently working on improving GDPR compliance and site performance, and I’ve run into a recurring issue: many themes and extensions automatically load Google Fonts or external vector fonts without clear consent or control.


What I need is a reliable plugin that can fully block these external font requests by default and give me the option to serve only local resources. Ideally, it should:


  • Prevent any connection to Google Fonts or third-party font CDNs.
  • Allow uploading and managing local fonts as replacements.
  • Handle vector font files (like SVG or WOFF resources) that are sometimes loaded from external servers.
  • Work seamlessly with modern CMS platforms like Joomla or WordPress.

Does anyone know of a plugin that already does this, or is this a missing feature in the market? A lot of site owners would benefit from a solution that improves both privacy compliance and speed by cutting off unnecessary external calls.

If you want to use third-party fonts, you need to download them and use them locally on your website. This way, you comply with GDPR, speed up page loading, and don't need to block fonts.

But if you are looking for a Joomla extension, there is GDPR Component. It is the best extension that covers all GDPR issues.
