Note on Google Fonts: the Website loads typographic fonts from Google's servers (fonts.googleapis.com and fonts.gstatic.com). Although this service does not directly set cookies, the transmission of the User's IP address to Google's server constitutes a communication of data processed under Amber Muscle's legitimate interest in providing an adequate browsing experience (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). The User is informed in accordance with the principle of transparency.

Note on the contact form (WordPress.com): the contact form is hosted on the WordPress.com platform, operated by Automattic, Inc. That platform may set its own cookies when the form is used directly, governed by Automattic's Privacy Policy (automattic.com/privacy/).

Note on GitHub Pages: the Website is hosted on GitHub Pages, a service provided by GitHub, Inc. Browsing may generate technical logs managed by this provider in accordance with its own Privacy Policy.

5. International data transfers

The third-party cookies described in section 4 entail the communication of technical data to Google LLC, a company based in the United States of America. Additionally, the Google Fonts service (Google LLC), the contact form (Automattic, Inc.) and hosting (GitHub, Inc.) may involve international transfers to the U.S.

Amber Muscle ensures that such transfers are subject to the appropriate safeguards provided for in the GDPR, in particular through the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (Decision (EU) 2023/1795 of 10 July 2023), where the providers are certified under it. Users may consult the certification status at dataprivacyframework.gov/list.

The User may modify their preferences at any time by clearing the Website's local storage from their browser.
