Thus, we do not send any data to Google Fonts. Data such as browser, operating system and IP address are stored.
3.10.2 Purpose of Data Processing

The customised Google search only transfers your data to Google, if you actively use the Google search function that is integrated to our website. This means that only when you type a search term in the search bar and click on “Search” or “Enter”, the search term is sent to Google along with your IP address, where they are stored and processed.

Your data is distributed across various physical data carriers. This means the data can be accessed quicker and is better protected against potential manipulation.
