# Moofx

Unclassified · [Official website](https://github.com/kamicane/moofx)

Moofx is a CSS3-enabled JavaScript animation library created by Valerio Proietti (kamicane). It provides smooth element animations using CSS3 transitions with a requestAnimationFrame fallback. The library is open source under the MIT licence and was archived in 2019. Moofx does not set any cookies, does not collect personal data, and does not perform any tracking or analytics. When loaded from a CDN, visitors' IP addresses may be transmitted to CDN providers. Self-hosting eliminates any privacy concern.

Overview

## What does Moofx do?

## **What Is Moofx?**

Moofx is a lightweight, CSS3-enabled JavaScript animation library created by Valerio Proietti. It leverages CSS3 transitions when available and falls back to requestAnimationFrame for smooth animations across all browsers. The library supports colour animations (rgb, rgba, hsl, hex), length unit conversions, and custom easing via cubic-bezier curves. Moofx is open source under the MIT licence, available via npm, and can also run in Node.js environments. The project was archived on GitHub in December 2019 but remains widely deployed on existing websites.

## **Cookies and Data Collection**

Moofx does not set any cookies. It does not use localStorage, sessionStorage, or any browser storage mechanism. The library operates entirely in memory during page rendering, animating CSS properties without any persistent storage or data collection. No personal data such as IP addresses, device identifiers, or behavioural information is collected or processed by Moofx code.

## **GDPR and ePrivacy Implications**

Since Moofx does not set cookies or collect personal data, it falls outside the scope of the ePrivacy Directive consent requirement (Art. 5(3)). Under GDPR, no lawful basis for data processing needs to be established for the library itself. However, when loaded from an external CDN such as jsdelivr, the browser sends a network request that includes the visitor's IP address to the CDN provider, which may involve data processing under GDPR.

## **CDN Loading and International Data Transfers**

When served from cdn.jsdelivr.net, the visitor's IP address is transmitted to Cloudflare or Fastly infrastructure operating globally, including in the United States. Under GDPR Chapter V, this constitutes an international data transfer. Cloudflare participates in the EU-US Data Privacy Framework, providing an adequacy basis. To eliminate any transfer concern, self-host Moofx by installing it via npm and bundling the file into your build process.

## **Consent Requirements**

No consent banner or cookie notice is required for Moofx. The library qualifies as a strictly necessary technical component for website presentation. European data protection authorities have consistently held that front-end UI libraries without cookies or data collection do not require user consent. If you load Moofx from an external CDN, mention the CDN provider in your privacy policy but this does not trigger a consent requirement.

## **Practical Compliance Steps**

For maximum GDPR compliance, self-host Moofx by bundling it locally. This eliminates all third-party requests. If using a CDN, mention the CDN provider in your privacy policy. No cookie banner changes are needed. Since Moofx is archived and no longer maintained, consider migrating to actively maintained alternatives such as GSAP, Motion (Framer Motion), or anime.js for long-term security and compatibility.

Compliance

## Moofx and the GDPR

- Legal basis

- Risk level

  low

- Applicable regulations

  GDPR (if CDN loading exposes IP to third countries), ePrivacy Directive (no cookie implications)
