IDIST, (“Interior Designist”, “Vendor”, “we”, “us”, “our”) may deploy various tracking technologies, such as cookies, web beacons, and tracking pixels, when consumers (“customers”, “user”, “you”, “your”) visit our website idist.com (the “Site”) to collect additional information about your visits. These tracking technologies may be deployed by us and/or by or service providers on our behalf. These technologies enable us to assign a unique number to you and relate your Site usage information to other information about you.  Cookies are a text-based data format that cannot contain any executable code, which means they are not a potential security risk.

1. Use of Cookies

A “cookie” is a small data file stored on your browser that assigns you a unique identifier to enable a site to “remember” little bits of information between pages or visits. It does not reveal personal information (because the data in the cookie comes from the website’s server). It just identifies you as the same user that visited previously.

We use cookies on the Site to, among other things, keep track of services you have used, record registration information and user preferences, keep you logged into the Site, facilitate purchase procedures, and track the pages you visit. Cookies help us understand how the Site is being used and improve your user experience.
