# Global Privacy Control (GPC) Signal
The GPC Signal feature in the **Consentik Cookie Banner** app helps you further enhance your compliance with privacy regulations. When this feature is enabled, the app automatically sends a Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal whenever it detects that a user is accessing your online store using a browser that supports this signal.
The GPC signal is a mechanism designed to communicate a user's privacy preferences to websites, indicating that the user does not want their data to be sold or shared. By integrating this feature into your online store, you are proactively respecting and adhering to your customers' privacy choices.
This automatic detection and response to GPC signals ensure that your store remains compliant with the latest privacy standards, such as GDPR and CCPA. It also demonstrates your commitment to protecting user data and respecting their privacy preferences, which can enhance customer trust and loyalty.
By leveraging the GPC Signal feature, you simplify the process of managing privacy signals and ensure that your store responds appropriately to users' privacy settings without requiring manual intervention. This not only saves time but also reduces the risk of non-compliance with evolving privacy laws.
