    Increasingly Data Explorers and Practitioners are using websites and web applications to communicate their insights and findings. Popular frameworks are effective in creating stakeholder friendly visuals but often have their own distinct style. In many corporate environments in particular, this can prove distracting leading to frustration amongst Data Explorers. Whilst changing colours and position of elements are straightforward, the use of fonts is not. This episode explores the importance of fonts in websites and web applications, the challenges of using fonts installed on user machines, the use of external font providers and the associated privacy concerns. The episode then discusses how to address these concerns by using alternative external providers or self-hosting fonts. There is no evidence to state that any of the Prvacy focused external providers can’t be trusted but the option of self-hosting is a way to mitigate some of these concerns. It should be noted that the episode is based on the GPDR Web Fonts blog post.
