Protect users' data with GDPR-compliant, privacy-focused website.

Publii generates static websites that are, by their nature, privacy-focused. By default, Publii-based websites do not collect any personal information whatsoever (no database, no user credentials), does not send user information to third parties, and do not retain any information that users provide.

Want to use third-party tools for tracking or analytics? Publii delivers privacy tools to enable users to make their sites GDPR and CCPA-compliant without the need for inputting long commands, messing around with complex code, or remembering unnecessary credentials, which makes for a faster, smoother, and simpler workflow.

Themes

All assets, including fonts, scripts & CSS are served locally

All official Publii themes that our team creates, both free and premium, do not use any CDN or third-party providers to deliver files. Instead, all files; fonts, scripts, icons, and CSS files, as well as any images Publii generates, are stored locally.

Basically, if you're running a base Publii website without any third-party extensions, then you're site should be fully GDPR compliant; no mess, no fear, no fuss.
