Amazon saves to the cloud.
The annotations are stored on the device in a device-independent xml file, so the annotations for a book can be copied from one Kobo device to another, to ADE on a PC, (and possibly to non-Kobo devices based on the Adobe reader software such as Sony, but I haven't tried that), all without needing to involve Kobo, Adobe, etc. in the process.

If you wanted to copy the annotations from a Kobo device to a non-Kobo device that wasn't based on the Adobe reader software you would need to convert them to a format the other device could use, but you would need to do that if you wanted to copy them from an Amazon device to another company's device too.
