4. Transfers outside the European Union

Some of our providers (in particular Google, Microsoft, Cloudflare, PayPal, Klaviyo, Brevo, Elfsight and, depending on the data centre used, Zoho) are established outside the European Union, notably in the United States, or may process data there. In that case, transfers are covered by the safeguards provided for by the GDPR: an adequacy decision of the European Commission (for example the EU–US Data Privacy Framework, for certified companies) or the European Commission's standard contractual clauses.

You can obtain information about these safeguards by writing to us at the address given in section 1.

6. Cookies and trackers

A cookie (or tracker) is information stored on your device when you visit the Site. This section also covers the browser's local storage.

Cookies strictly necessary for the Site to work (cart, language, login, security) are set without consent. Others (audience measurement, marketing, third-party content) may only be set with your consent, which you can give, refuse or withdraw at any time, as easily as you gave it, through the cookie banner shown on your first visit ("Accept all", "Deny all" and "Customize" buttons). You can reopen it at any time with the Cookie settings link at the bottom of every page. Until you make a choice, no audience measurement, marketing or third-party content cookie is set, and neither Google Analytics nor Microsoft Clarity is loaded.

Microsoft Clarity helps us understand how the Site is used (pages viewed, clicks, scrolling) so that we can make it easier to use. Sensitive text (numbers, e-mail addresses) and anything you type into forms is masked before being sent. We tell Microsoft that your consent covers audience measurement only, not advertising. If you withdraw your consent, Clarity stops and its cookies set on institut-cosmetic.com are deleted; cookies set on Microsoft's domains (clarity.ms, bing.com) can only be deleted from your browser settings.

Services loaded without any cookie observed: Cloudflare Web Analytics (technical statistics) and Google Fonts (display fonts). Your IP address is sent to these providers when the page loads.

You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Blocking necessary cookies may prevent the cart and your account from working.

12. Changes

We may change this policy, in particular to reflect changes to the Site, our providers or the regulations. The date of the last update appears at the top of the page. In the event of a significant change, we will inform you by appropriate means.
