5. Legal Basis for Using Cookies
Under the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR) and UK GDPR, we use essential cookies based on our legitimate interest in providing a functional website. Non-essential cookies, including analytics and functionality cookies, are only placed after you provide consent through our cookie consent popup displayed on your first visit to shiningorganicir.world. You may withdraw consent at any time by clearing cookies from your browser or adjusting your preferences as described below.
6. Managing Your Cookie Preferences
You have several options for controlling cookies on our website:
- Cookie consent popup: when you first visit shiningorganicir.world, a popup allows you to accept or decline non-essential cookies. Your choice is stored in localStorage under the key cookieConsent.
- Browser settings: most web browsers allow you to manage cookies through their settings. You can typically block all cookies, block third-party cookies only, or delete existing cookies. Instructions vary by browser: Chrome (Settings > Privacy and security > Cookies), Firefox (Settings > Privacy & Security > Cookies), Safari (Preferences > Privacy > Cookies), Edge (Settings > Cookies and site permissions).
- Opt-out tools: for analytics cookies, you can install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on available at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
Please note that disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of shiningorganicir.world. Essential cookies cannot be disabled as they are necessary for core website operations including form submissions and navigation.
7. Do Not Track Signals
Some browsers include a Do Not Track (DNT) feature that signals websites you visit that you do not want your online activity tracked. Currently, there is no universally accepted standard for how websites should respond to DNT signals. Shiningorganicir does not currently respond to DNT signals but respects cookie consent choices made through our popup mechanism.

We may update this Cookies Policy periodically to reflect changes in the cookies we use, new technologies, or legal requirements. The updated policy will be posted on this page with a revised date.
