What it means	France-based independent certifier operating in 130+ countries. One of the world's largest organic + cosmetics + textile certifiers.

Three grades: Natural, Natural with Organic portion, and Organic.	North America's leading 'no genetically modified organisms' certification. Tests for the presence of GMOs in finished products.

Accredited under multiple national systems including USDA NOP and EU 2018/848.	Restricted ingredient list (no synthetic fragrances, no silicones, no PEGs). Tiered organic content: Natural with Organic portion ≥70% certified organic; Organic ≥95%. Annual third-party verification.	Verified absence of GMO ingredients (with action thresholds, not zero tolerance). Annual third-party verification. Tracing and segregation across the supply chain.

Does NOT	Ecocert is the certifier, not the standard — the actual rules come from whichever organic regulation the product is certified under.	Mark is trademark-protected.	Doesn't mean organic — Non-GMO products can use synthetic pesticides and fertilizers freely.	Australia has multiple competing organic certifiers — NASAA is one of seven, not the dominant national mark (that's ACO).
