Adjust the Ecobalyse background color and Ecobalyse text color for both Light mode and Dark mode, and set the Corner radius (e.g., 0.5rem) to match your site's style. Click Save.

Copy the code for the <body> tag (the vl-ecobalyse-score-widget div and initialization script) using the copy icon, then paste both snippets into your website as described in the instructions.
Tip: Add the <head> code via your theme's head/custom-code section, and the <body> code where you want the Ecobalyse Score widget to appear on the page.
Your style now has a calculated environmental impact score from Ecobalyse, ready to be embedded on your website for customer-facing sustainability transparency.
