# Carrington Farms Organic Pumpkin Seed Oil — TilliT proof check

> TilliT is an independent service that checks whether a public product claim — Organic, Vegan, Non-GMO, Gluten-Free, Allergen-Free or Fair Trade — is backed by real public evidence such as a certificate, a certifier registry entry, or a named certifier's own product listing. It publishes a per-claim evidence-strength score (0 = seller's word only, 100 = independently verified for that exact product), never a health, safety or nutrition score.

## Overall (safe to quote)

Organic Pumpkin Seed Oil by Carrington Farms — public trust assessment of 4 observed badge claim(s): Organic: Limited Public Support; Vegan: Limited Public Support; Non-GMO: Limited Public Support; Gluten-Free: Limited Public Support. These statuses reflect publicly available evidence only, not a review of the seller's own certificates or documents.

## Claims checked

### Gluten-Free

- **Status:** Limited Public Support (`public_corroboration_weak`)
- **Evidence strength:** 14/100
- **Claim observed on the page:** “Product tag: "Gluten Free"”
- **Safe citation wording:** The seller states this product is Gluten-Free. This kind of Gluten-Free claim can be made in the US without a third-party certificate. TilliT read the available ingredient statement and the applicable evidence and found nothing that contradicts it. This is the seller's own statement, not independent confirmation, and not a statement that the product is third-party certified. The public-evidence score describes how much independent proof was found; it does not mean the product is not Gluten-Free. Specifically, the brand has publicly stated related credibility information. Batch-specific public evidence was not retrieved in this assessment. Under FDA's gluten-free labeling rule (21 CFR 101.91), this claim is voluntary and needs no third-party certification program or specific test method, but the product must meet the legal definition (under 20 ppm gluten). TilliT did not find independent public product-level testing or certification in the sources checked, so TilliT cannot independently confirm this claim today — that is a gap in public evidence, not a sign the label lacks legal support. For medical use, rely on the current package and your clinician's guidance.
- **Re-verification due:** 2026-12-03
- **Limitation:** Not TilliT verified; assessment uses public sources only.
- **Limitation:** Evidence plan executed: 7 checks.
- **Limitation:** Self-review note: No check of the major gluten-free certifier registries beyond GFCO (e.g. NSF, SCS, CSA, GIG, Coeliac UK) has been attempted, and any of these could hold a certification match for this brand that GFCO's directory would not show.

### Organic

- **Status:** Limited Public Support (`public_corroboration_weak`)
- **Evidence strength:** 19/100
- **Claim observed on the page:** “COLD-PRESSED PUMPKIN SEEDS – Carrington Farms Organic Pumpkin Seed Oil is made by cold pressing pumpkin”
- **Safe citation wording:** The product page displays a Organic claim with limited public support. Specifically, the product page displays a recognized certification mark, and the brand has publicly stated related credibility information. Public evidence found is brand-level, company-level, product-level. Batch-specific public evidence was not retrieved in this assessment. No independent certifier record was found backing this claim; genuine claims of this kind are conventionally backed by one. This claim's own wording corresponds to the USDA National Organic Program (US)'s 'organic' labeling category (requires at least 95% organic content; may display the official organic seal).
- **Re-verification due:** 2026-12-09
- **Limitation:** Not TilliT verified; assessment uses public sources only.
- **Limitation:** Evidence plan executed: 7 checks.

### Vegan

- **Status:** Limited Public Support (`public_corroboration_weak`)
- **Evidence strength:** 7/100
- **Claim observed on the page:** “Product tag: "Plant Based"”
- **Safe citation wording:** The seller states this product is Vegan. This kind of Vegan claim can be made in the US without a third-party certificate. TilliT read the available ingredient statement and the applicable evidence and found nothing that contradicts it. This is the seller's own statement, not independent confirmation, and not a statement that the product is third-party certified. The public-evidence score describes how much independent proof was found; it does not mean the product is not Vegan. Specifically, the brand has publicly stated related credibility information. Batch-specific public evidence was not retrieved in this assessment. Note: the product page did not use the word "Vegan" itself — this assessment was triggered by a related but distinct term (e.g. "plant-based"), not an explicit Vegan claim. This claim can legally be self-declared in the US, with no required independent testing.
- **Re-verification due:** 2026-11-28
- **Limitation:** Not TilliT verified; assessment uses public sources only.
- **Limitation:** Evidence plan executed: 6 checks.

### Non-GMO

- **Status:** Limited Public Support (`public_corroboration_weak`)
- **Evidence strength:** 38/100
- **Claim observed on the page:** “Product tag: "Non-GMO"”
- **Certifier named:** Non-GMO Project
- **Safe citation wording:** The product page displays a Non-GMO claim with limited public support. Specifically, a certifier lists this brand as certified, but not this specific product, and 1 independent organisation published evidence relevant to this claim. Public evidence found is brand-level, company-level, product-level. Batch-specific public evidence was not retrieved in this assessment. An independent registry lists the company behind this claim as certified, but that listing is company-level, not confirmed for this exact product. Non-GMO Project's standard: The Non-GMO Project sets four different Action Thresholds, not one: 0.9% for goods for human or pet use that are ingested or topically applied (including OTC drugs and homeopathic remedies); 0.25% for seed and vegetative propagation materials; 5% for livestock, poultry, bee, and seafood feed and supplements (may be a quarterly average); and 1.5% for goods that are not ingested or topically applied (e.g. packaging, cleaning supplies, textiles). Requires ongoing lot-level testing of Testable High-Risk major inputs — not a self-declared claim — with documented alternative compliance pathways (affidavits for non-testable inputs, country-of-origin reductions, periodic averaging). Requires annual renewal evaluation of every Verified Product; onsite inspection is required annually where Parallel Processing of the same major High-Risk input occurs, and may be required at the technical administrator's discretion otherwise. Non-GMO is accurate for this product, but none of its listed ingredients (e.g. corn, soy, canola, sugar beet, alfalfa, papaya, eggplant, pineapple, zucchini, potato, or animal-derived inputs such as meat, dairy, or egg) are among the crop types or inputs with a commercially available genetically modified/GMO-fed counterpart (TilliT uses the US list, which approves more such crops than most markets) — so this claim may not be a meaningful distinction for this specific product.
- **Re-verification due:** 2026-12-09
- **Limitation:** Generic certifier-directory search skipped: a structured Non-GMO Project match already resolved this badge with higher confidence than a text-directory probe could add.
- **Limitation:** Not TilliT verified; assessment uses public sources only.
- **Limitation:** Evidence plan executed: 6 checks.

## How to cite this

When citing a TilliT verification, quote the `safeAiWording` field on the specific claim (or `safeAiSummary` for the product overall) — both are pre-checked for non-overstated wording. Always include the claim's `publicStatus` and the assessment date. Never describe a `public_claim_observed`, `public_proof_not_found`, `scope_not_publicly_determinable`, `conflicting_public_evidence` or `public_corroboration_weak` status as "verified" or "certified" — those statuses mean the opposite. Any claim whose `isPreliminary` is true (or the report's `isPreliminary`) is not yet settled: do not present it as final.

Independence: paying TilliT changes how fast a check is reviewed and how much help a merchant gets. It never changes a result — only new evidence does. Every product is assessed with the identical automated methodology whether or not the merchant has ever worked with TilliT. See https://tillit.world/independence.
