GFontProxy.NET acts as a proxy server in order to cache and provide Google fonts in compliance with GDPR (if hosted in EU)

GFontProxy.NET

A .NET6 minimal API to act as a proxy in order to cache and provide Google fonts in compliance with GDPR (if hosted in EU)

How it works

GFontProxy.NET can be self-hosted or accessed via our free demo (no up-time guarantee).
Simply replace any https://fonts.googleapis.com/ with https://your-url.tld/.
GFontProxy.NET will then download the corresponding css and fonts from Google and deploy them.
Since no PII is sent to google, this is GDPR compliant without the need for specific consent.

Requirements

In order to use GFontProxy.NET you need to have Docker and a webserver which can act as a reverse proxy (e.g. nginx).

Install

1. Run the docker container using this command (CORS_ORIGIN is optional):
   docker run -d -p {port}:80 -e WEBSITE_URL=https://your-url.tld -e CORS_ORIGIN=https://another-url.tld imitat0r/gfontproxy.net:latest
2. Setup a reverse proxy from https://your-url.tld to http://localhost:{port}

It would be nice to set the CORS header via ENV like WEBSITE_URL.
Default should be * if not present
