Can you get in trouble for not paying for fonts?

Yes, you can get in trouble for not paying for fonts , depending on how the font is licensed and how you use it. Fonts are usually protected by copyright and come with a license that explains what you’re allowed to do. Using a paid font without buying the proper license (for example, using it commercially, on a website, or in a logo without permission) can lead to legal action, fines, or demands for back payment from the font’s creator or foundry. In some cases, companies have been required to pay settlements or remove materials that used unlicensed fonts. That said, many fonts are free or open-source and can be used legally if you follow their license terms. To stay safe, always check the font’s license and make sure it covers how you plan to use it (print, web, app, logo, etc.).

Is accessibility important on websites?

Accessibility is important for websites because it ensures everyone, including people with disabilities, can use and understand online content. Accessible websites support users with visual, hearing, motor, or cognitive impairments by working with screen readers, keyboards, captions, and other assistive technologies. This not only makes the web more inclusive and fair, but also improves usability for all users, helps websites reach a wider audience, and can reduce legal and compliance risks.
