# Compliance with GDPR
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Material does not process any personal data
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Material is a theme for MkDocs, a static site generator. In itself, Material
|
||
|
|
does not perform any tracking or processing of personal data. However, some of
|
||
|
|
the third-party services that Material integrates with may actually be in breach
|
||
|
|
with the [General Data Protection Regulation][1] (GDPR) and need to be evaluated
|
||
|
|
carefully.

## Third-party services
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Google Fonts
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Material makes fonts [easily configurable][2] by relying on Google Fonts CDN.
|
||
|
|
However, embedding fonts from Google is currently within a gray area as there's
|
||
|
|
no official statement or ruling regarding GDPR compliance and the topic is still
|
||
|
|
[actively discussed][3]. For this reason, if you need to ensure GDPR compiance,
|
||
|
|
you should disable the usage of the Google Font CDN with:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
``` yaml
|
||
|
|
theme:
|
||
|
|
font: false
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
When Google Fonts are disabled, Material will default to **Helvetica Neue** and
|
||
|
|
**Monaco** with their corresponding fall backs, relying on system fonts. You
|
||
|
|
could however include your own, self-hosted webfont by [overriding][4] the
|
||
|
|
`fonts` block.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The icon fonts (Material and FontAwesome) are bundled with the theme, and thus
|
||
|
|
self-hosted so there's no third-party involved.

### Google Analytics and Disqus
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Material comes with [Google Analytics][4] and [Disqus][5] integrations that need
|
||
|
|
to be *enabled explicitly*. Disable both integrations in order to be in
|
||
|
|
compliance with the GDPR.
