1. Local Storage vs. Cookies

FontPreview primarily uses localStorage (not cookies) to remember your preferences. Unlike cookies, localStorage data:

• ✅ Never sent to our servers automatically
• ✅ Stays only in your browser
• ✅ Never used for tracking across websites
• ✅ Cleared when you clear your browser data
• ✅ Persists across browser sessions indefinitely until manually cleared

We use traditional cookies only for Google Analytics and Google AdSense, which are third-party services with their own policies.

2. Data We Store (Local Storage)

Note: All of the above are stored in localStorage, not cookies. You can clear them at any time via your browser settings or by clicking the "Reset" buttons above.

3. Third-Party Cookies

4. What We Never Store

FontPreview does not use cookies or localStorage for:

• ❌ Your typed text or preview content
• ❌ Font selections or comparisons
• ❌ Screenshots or captures
• ❌ Personal identification
• ❌ Cross-site tracking

Everything you type stays in your browser tab. When you close it, it's gone forever. All tools run client-side, meaning your data never leaves your device.

5. Your Control & Preferences

System Font Permission

When you first use the Comparison Lab, you'll be asked to allow access to your system fonts. This choice is saved in localStorage. To reset it:

1. Open your browser's Developer Tools (F12)
2. Go to Application → Local Storage
3. Delete fontPermissionAsked and fontPermissionGranted
4. Refresh the page

Or simply click the "Reset" buttons in the table above.

Dark Mode Preference

Your theme choice is saved in localStorage. To reset, clear your browser data or delete darkMode using the button above.

FontMagic Favorites

Your favorite font styles are saved in fontMagicFavorites. Use the reset button above to clear them.

Google Analytics & AdSense

To opt out of Google Analytics tracking across all websites, install the Google Analytics Opt-Out Browser Add-on.

To control personalized ads, visit Google Ad Settings.

Browser Settings

You can clear all localStorage and cookies at any time through your browser settings:

• Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Clear browsing data
• Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data → Clear Data
• Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data → Remove All
• Edge: Settings → Privacy, search, and services → Clear browsing data

6. Cookie Consent Banner

When you first visit FontPreview, you may see a banner asking for cookie consent. This banner:

• ✅ Appears only once per browser
• ✅ Stores your choice in localStorage (key: cookieConsent)
• ✅ Does not set any cookies itself
• ✅ Is required by Google's EU User Consent Policy

You can change your consent at any time by clicking the "Re-open Consent Preferences" button at the top of this page.

7. Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy to reflect changes in our practices or for legal compliance. Updates will be posted here with a revised "Last Updated" date. If we make significant changes, we will notify users via the website banner.
