<h2>Tracking your order</h2>
<p>Once your order is dispatched, you will receive a tracking link via SMS and WhatsApp on your registered mobile number. You can also track your order anytime at <strong style="color:#C4754A">daarudarling.com/track</strong> using your order ID.</p>
<div class="info-box">
<strong>Didn't get a tracking SMS?</strong> Sometimes it takes up to 12 hours after dispatch for the tracking link to activate. If it's been longer, drop us a message on WhatsApp at <strong>+91 XXXXX XXXXX</strong> with your order number.

<div class="section-block">
<h2>Packaging</h2>
<p>Every Daarudarling order is packed in our signature kraft paper box with crinkle fill — sturdy enough to protect your earrings, pretty enough to gift directly. We use zero single-use plastics in our packaging.</p>
<p>Gift orders come with a handwritten note if you leave a message at checkout — no extra charge.</p>

<p>Daarudarling is not responsible for delays caused by incorrect or incomplete delivery addresses. Please double-check your address at checkout.</p>
