Privacy policy

A short, plain-language description of what happens to your data when you use fastfetch.dev, and separately, what the fastfetch program does on your computer.

Last updated: October 8, 2026

Summary

  • This site uses Google Analytics 4 to count visits. It sets cookies and sends usage data to Google (details below).
  • Fonts are loaded from Google Fonts, so your browser contacts Google when you open a page.
  • The site is hosted on Cloudflare, which processes standard web server logs.
  • We have no accounts, forms, comments or ads, and we do not sell data. The pages' own scripts set no cookies and use no browser storage.
  • The fastfetch program is separate: it has no telemetry and only uses the network for modules you add yourself.

Analytics (Google Analytics 4)

The pages of this site load Google’s tag (gtag.js from googletagmanager.com) with the measurement ID G-6TV0ZQEYQR. It records page views and basic interaction data such as the page URL, referrer, approximate location (country and city level), browser, device and screen size, and sets first-party cookies named _ga and _ga_<ID> that distinguish visitors and sessions. By default these cookies last up to two years. Google states that Google Analytics 4 does not log or store individual IP addresses; the address is used to derive the approximate location (see Google’s explanation).

We use the reports only to see which pages are read and which searches or links bring people here, so we can improve the guides. We do not use the data for advertising. Google processes the data as described in its policy on how Google uses information from sites that use its services.

Opting out: install the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on, block googletagmanager.com and google-analytics.com with a content blocker, or disable cookies for this site. The site works the same without analytics.

Hosting logs, fonts and external links

  • Hosting: pages are served by Cloudflare. Like any web host it processes technical request data (IP address, user agent, requested URL, time) to deliver pages, cache them and defend against abuse.
  • Google Fonts: the Inter and JetBrains Mono fonts are requested from fonts.googleapis.com and fonts.gstatic.com, which shares your IP address and browser details with Google.
  • External links: links to GitHub and other sites leave this site; their privacy policies apply from that point.
  • Browser storage: our own scripts (copy buttons, tabs, the config generator) run entirely in your browser. Nothing you type or select in the generator is sent to us, and no cookies or local storage are written by these scripts.

The fastfetch program (not this website)

Fastfetch reads system information from your own computer and prints it to your terminal. In version 2.69.0 its source code has no telemetry, crash reporting or update check. The only modules that open network connections are publicip and weather; neither is in the default module list, and they run only if you add them to your configuration. A command module can run any program you configure, so read configs from other people before using them. You can verify all of this in the open-source code.

Your choices and rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct or delete personal data about you, to object to processing, or to withdraw consent. We hold no account data. The only personal data we may hold is email you send us; Google holds the analytics data and Cloudflare the server logs. Write to support@fastfetch.dev and we will help, or contact the relevant provider.

Changes to this policy

If we add or remove a tool that handles visitor data, we update this page and its date (October 8, 2026).
