Privacy Policy

Last updated: April 16, 2026

Your privacy matters to us. This privacy policy explains what data we collect when you use HaooFont, how we use it, and the rights you have under GDPR and UK GDPR. We aim to be transparent and straightforward — no confusing legal jargon, just clear information you can act on.

1. Who We Are

HaooFont operates haoofont.com, an online font tools website offering:

  • Font generators and fancy text tools
  • Font recommendation tools
  • Font matching tools
  • Font downloads and previews

If you have any questions about this privacy policy or our data protection practices, you can reach us at [email protected].

2. What Data We Collect

a. Information You Provide

  • Text input — When you use our font generators or fancy text tools, the text you type is processed in real time to produce your result. It is not stored on our servers.
  • Uploaded images — When you use our font matching tools and upload an image, that image is processed to identify fonts and then deleted. We do not retain uploaded images after processing is complete.

b. Automatically Collected Data

When you visit haoofont.com, certain information is collected automatically:

  • IP address — used for security monitoring and geographic analytics
  • Browser type and version — helps us ensure compatibility across browsers
  • Device information — including operating system, screen resolution, and device type
  • Usage data — pages visited, tools used, time spent on pages, and referring URLs

This data helps us understand how people use our site so we can improve it.

c. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to operate and improve haoofont.com. For full details on the types of cookies we use and how to manage them, see Section 5 of this policy.

3. How We Use Your Data

We use the data we collect to:

  • Provide our services — delivering the font tools and features you use
  • Improve our website — analyzing usage patterns to fix issues and build better features
  • Monitor performance and security — detecting errors, preventing abuse, and keeping the site running smoothly
  • Personalize your experience — showing relevant content and ads based on your usage

We do not sell your personal data to third parties, ever.

If you are located in the EU, EEA, or UK, we process your personal data under the following legal bases:

  • Legitimate interests — We process certain data (such as usage analytics, server logs, and security monitoring) because we have a legitimate interest in operating and improving a functional, secure website. We have assessed that these interests do not override your fundamental rights and freedoms.
  • Consent — For non-essential cookies (such as analytics and advertising cookies), we rely on your consent. You can withdraw consent at any time through our cookie consent banner or your browser settings.
  • Legal obligation — In rare cases, we may need to process data to comply with a legal requirement.

5. Cookies and Tracking

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help websites remember your preferences, understand how you use the site, and serve relevant ads.

We use the following types of cookies on haoofont.com:

  • Essential cookies — Required for the website to function. These cannot be disabled without affecting core features.
  • Analytics cookies — We use Google Analytics to collect anonymized data about how visitors use our site (pages visited, time on site, traffic sources). This helps us improve the experience for everyone.
  • Advertising cookies — We use Google AdSense to display ads. Depending on your preferences, these may be personalized based on your browsing behavior or shown on a non-personalized basis.

When you first visit haoofont.com, our cookie consent banner will ask for your permission before placing any non-essential cookies. You can update your preferences at any time.

For a full breakdown of every cookie we use and how to manage or disable them, please refer to our Cookie Policy page.

6. Third-Party Services

We work with trusted third-party services to operate and monetize haoofont.com. Each provider operates under its own privacy policy and is responsible for how it processes your data.

  • Google Analytics — Collects anonymized usage data to help us understand site traffic and user behavior. Google Privacy Policy
  • Google AdSense — Serves personalized or non-personalized ads based on your settings and browsing context. Google Advertising & Privacy
  • CDN providers — Content delivery networks may process your IP address to route content quickly and efficiently to your location.

We only work with providers who meet appropriate data protection standards.

7. Data Retention

We keep your data only as long as necessary:

  • Text input and uploaded images — Not stored beyond your active processing session. Once your result is generated, the input data is gone.
  • Analytics data — Retained for up to 14 months, which is the default Google Analytics retention period.
  • Server logs — Retained for up to 90 days, then securely deleted.

We do not hold on to data we no longer need.

8. Your Rights (GDPR & UK GDPR)

If you are in the EU, EEA, or UK, you have the following rights regarding your personal data:

  • Right to access — You can request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
  • Right to rectification — You can ask us to correct inaccurate or incomplete data.
  • Right to erasure — You can request that we delete your personal data, subject to certain conditions.

  • Right to object — You can object to processing based on legitimate interests or for direct marketing purposes.

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at [email protected]. We will respond within 30 days. For complex or high-volume requests, we may extend this by up to 60 additional days, and we will let you know if that applies.

If you are not satisfied with how we handle your request, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority:

9. Data Security

We take reasonable steps to protect your data:

  • HTTPS/TLS encryption — All data transmitted between your browser and our servers is encrypted.
  • Regular security updates — We keep our systems and software up to date to address known vulnerabilities.
  • Access controls — Access to any personal data is limited to those who need it to perform their role.
  • Secure deletion — Data we no longer need is deleted securely.

No system connected to the internet can guarantee absolute security, but we are committed to following good data protection practices and responding promptly to any incidents.

10. International Data Transfers

HaooFont is accessible worldwide, and some of the third-party services we use may process your data outside the European Economic Area (EEA) or the United Kingdom. Where this happens, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place, including:

  • Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) — approved by the European Commission for transfers to countries without an adequacy decision
  • UK International Data Transfer Addendum — for transfers from the UK
  • Adequacy decisions — where the destination country has been recognized as providing an adequate level of data protection

11. Children’s Privacy

haoofont.com is not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect personal data from:

  • Children under 16 in the EU/EEA (or the applicable age in their member state)
  • Children under 13 elsewhere

If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us at [email protected] and we will delete that data promptly.

12. Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, services, or legal requirements. When we make significant changes, we will post the updated policy on this page with a revised “Last updated” date at the top.

We encourage you to review this page periodically to stay informed about how we protect your data.
