Currently, the default template loads its fonts from Google Fonts, which is a service provided by Alphabet, Inc., a company that makes its money by tracking people and eroding their privacy for profit. Please consider using a privacy-friendly alternative hosted service or, even easier, load the font locally from the static folder.

Reference: /themes/cupper/layout/_default/baseof.html:

<link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=PT+Sans:400,400i,700" rel="stylesheet" media="none" onload="this.media='all';">

Done. For an added perf gain, moved to just using Arial for the body font for now. The personality comes form Miriam Libre anyway.
