Web Font Tracking Scripts
Bottom line: we don’t require tracking scripts of ANY kind
One of the trends we’ve noticed across font distributors, is the requirement to install font tracking scripts in websites. This generated buzz with developers which prompted me to write this short post. I’ll just lay it out there: we don’t require ANY tracking scripts of ANY kind. For that matter, we don’t require ANYTHING additional to be installed in your website. Nothing to affect performance. Nothing to affect security.
When it comes to web fonts, Fontspring has been around since the beginning. And we’ve seen it all. Like other software licensing, there are many different models. Fonts as a service (FOSS?), fonts loaded with javascript, fonts incurring cost with every pageview and even a silly pay-per-glyph model.
Fontspring was built to be common sense. We trust you, and want to give you a worry free licensing experience. No reporting, no subscriptions, no watermarks, and no domain limits. It just feels like the right thing to do!
