Cookies may be "session cookies" (deleted when you close your browser) or "persistent cookies" (remaining on your device for a defined period or until manually deleted).

Similar technologies include local storage, session storage, pixel tags, and web beacons. References to "cookies" in this policy encompass these related technologies unless otherwise specified.

3. How We Use Cookies

We categorize cookies based on their purpose and legal basis for use. Non-essential cookies are deployed only after you provide consent through our cookie consent banner or cookie settings panel.

3.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are essential for the website to function and cannot be disabled through our consent tool. They do not require consent under GDPR because they are necessary to provide a service you have explicitly requested.

• Cookie consent storage: Remembers your cookie preferences so the banner does not reappear on every visit. Stored in local storage. Duration: until preferences are changed or cleared.
• Session management: Maintains basic navigation state during your browsing session. Duration: session.
• Security cookies: Help protect against cross-site request forgery and other security threats. Duration: session to twenty-four hours.

3.2 Analytics Cookies

With your consent, analytics cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website. This information is used to improve content structure, identify popular pages, and enhance user experience. Data is aggregated where possible to reduce identifiability.

• Page view tracking: Records which pages are visited, time on page, and navigation paths.
• Traffic source analysis: Identifies how visitors arrived at our site (search engines, direct visits, referral links).
• Device and browser reporting: Aggregated data on device types, screen sizes, and browser versions for compatibility testing.

Analytics data is retained for fourteen months, after which identifiable elements are deleted or anonymized. Legal basis: consent (GDPR Article 6(1)(a)).

3.3 Marketing Cookies

With your consent, marketing cookies may be used to deliver relevant promotional content and measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns. These cookies may track your visits across websites to build a profile of your interests.

• Ad conversion tracking: Measures whether visitors who clicked an advertisement completed a desired action on our site.
• Remarketing: Enables display of workshop-related ads to previous visitors on third-party platforms, subject to platform policies.
• Campaign attribution: Associates bookings or inquiries with specific marketing channels.

Marketing data is retained for twelve months from the date of collection. Legal basis: consent (GDPR Article 6(1)(a)). You may withdraw consent at any time without affecting prior lawful processing.

4. Cookie Consent Management

When you first visit stunningmuscle.world, a cookie consent banner appears offering three options:

• Accept All: Enables strictly necessary, analytics, and marketing cookies.
• Reject: Enables only strictly necessary cookies. Analytics and marketing cookies are not set.
• Cookie Settings: Opens a panel where you can toggle analytics and marketing categories independently. Strictly necessary cookies remain always active.

Your preferences are stored locally on your device. You may change your choices at any time by clearing your browser's local storage for our domain and revisiting the site, or by contacting us to request guidance on updating preferences.

5. Third-Party Cookies

Some cookies on our website are set by third-party services we use to operate and improve our site. These third parties act as independent data controllers or processors depending on the service. We select providers that commit to GDPR-compliant data handling.

Potential third-party cookie sources include:

• Analytics platform providers (only when analytics consent is granted)
• Advertising network partners (only when marketing consent is granted)
• Content delivery networks serving icon fonts and static assets

We do not control third-party cookie behavior. We recommend reviewing the privacy and cookie policies of these providers for detailed information about their practices.

6. Managing Cookies Through Your Browser

Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can typically:

• View cookies stored on your device and delete them individually or collectively
• Block third-party cookies while allowing first-party cookies
• Block all cookies (note: this may impair website functionality)
• Configure the browser to notify you before a cookie is set
• Enable "Do Not Track" signals (effectiveness varies by provider)

Browser-specific guidance is available at the following locations:

• Google Chrome: Settings > Privacy and security > Cookies
• Mozilla Firefox: Settings > Privacy & Security > Cookies and Site Data
• Apple Safari: Preferences > Privacy > Manage Website Data
• Microsoft Edge: Settings > Cookies and site permissions

Blocking strictly necessary cookies may prevent the cookie consent banner from remembering your preferences and could affect basic site functionality.

7. Data Collected Through Cookies

Depending on the cookie category and your consent choices, the following data may be collected:

• Unique cookie identifiers (not directly linked to your identity unless combined with other data)
• IP address (may be anonymized by analytics providers)
• Pages visited and interaction events (clicks, scroll depth)
• Timestamp of visits
• Referring and exit URLs
• Device and browser characteristics
• Approximate geographic location derived from IP address

This data is used solely for the purposes described in Section 3 and is not sold to third parties.

8. Data Retention for Cookie-Related Data

• Consent preferences: Stored locally until you clear browser data or update preferences.
• Analytics data: Retained for fourteen months, then deleted or anonymized.
• Marketing tracking data: Retained for twelve months from collection date.
• Server access logs: Retained for twelve months for security and troubleshooting.

9. Security Measures

Cookie-related data is protected through the same security framework described in our Privacy Policy, including HTTPS encryption, access controls, and regular security assessments. Consent records are stored with integrity checks to prevent unauthorized modification.

10. Your Rights

Under the GDPR and other applicable laws, you have the right to:

• Withdraw cookie consent at any time
