Use of Font versus cookie p.gif from typekit.net

Hello, I would like to ask how does the cookie p.gif from typekit.net work.

As I can read on Adobe Privacy Policy  : In providing the Adobe Fonts service for websites, we do not set or use cookies in order to serve our fonts.

We use embeded Futura PT font and the javascript from use.typekit.net (which loads the font to the web)  inserts the cookie p.gif to the website. This cookie keeps track of special fonts used on the website for internal analysis. The cookie does not register any visitor data.

With regard to the new law on GDPR valid from 2022 website visitors must have a possibility to turn off this type of cookie via cookie bar.

So I would like to ask you for help how to make the font appear on website if the visitor turns off the p.gif cookie.

Please, why is in privacy policy written that there is no need a cookie with Adobe font service when the cookie is used. 

Thank you very much for your help.

    The p.gif is an image and not a cookie, therefore it is not covered under the GDPR rules for cookies. From the Adobe Fonts Privacy Policy:

     

    Adobe uses the information collected from websites using Adobe Fonts to provision the Adobe Fonts service and diagnose delivery or download problems. This information is also used to pay and fulfill our contracts with the font foundries whose fonts are used. We share aggregate reporting with font foundries and we may confirm to a font foundry that you have a valid license from Adobe, but we do not otherwise share your personal information wtih font foundries.
