Brizy Cloud Elements - GDPR issues with Google Fonts - How to fix?
In Germany, Google Fonts are generally banned since 2022. In Brizy Cloud you can fix text elements with local fonts. Premade blocks and layouts have to be changed manually.
However, there are still problems with the following elements:
Video element:
Youtube/Vimeo reloads Google Fonts.
Form element issues:
1. Changed the fields with local fonts. Google Fonts are still loaded.
2. How to change the e-mail notification field with local fonts?
3. reCaptcha loads Google Fonts.
I checked the Google Fonts with this tool: https://sicher3.de/google-fonts-checker/
Hope there are solutions or simple work arounds for this. Thank you.

Hi
You are correct; when reCAPTCHA is enabled on a Brizy Cloud website, it makes a small number of requests to Google for fonts. We need to look into this issue. I will report it.
A Brizy Cloud website with a YouTube video can avoid sending font requests to Google. Check out my test webpage https://school123.brizy.site/. Based on a GT Metrix test, I can confirm that it doesn't send any font request to Google. A test at https://sicher3.de/google-fonts-checker/ also demonstrates that this is the case.

Thank you for the quick reply. I did not know that you can delete the unwanted Google Fonts. Now it works - form and youtube.

Hi, a few weeks ago I tried reCAPTCHA again. There was no Google Fonts detected. But yesterday I got again Google Fonts Alert. Now I deleted it.
What is the current status on this? Have you continued to work on it?

Hi
In my tests, I am still seeing two font requests going to Google when using reCAPTCHA.
I have added reCAPTCHA to https://codesk.brizytest.online/demo-contact. This page requests two fonts from Google while other pages of the website do not request any font.
We still haven't made progress on this.
