What are cookies and
why must I accept them on your site? |
A cookie is a small piece of
information (text file) that's sent to your browser - along
with an HTML page - when you access some web sites. When a
cookie arrives at your browser, it generally is saved on
your hard drive or in your computer's memory. When you
return to that site later, some stored information is sent
back to the site's web server, along with your request. A
cookie is also a digital "ID tag." It is uniquely yours and
can only be read by the server that gave it to you. It can
not read any other part of your files, nor can it be used to
send viruses. What will Integrated Data Processing, Inc. do
with cookies? Integrated Data Processing, Inc. will use
cookies on its client site to: 1. Authenticate valid

authentication. At Integrated Data Processing, Inc.,
security will not be compromised. Using a cookie helps
ensure that only you have access to your account.
Authentication information is valid only for a single
session and changes each time you begin a new session. This
is a temporary cookie and will expire at the end of each
session. We will also send cookies that will store your web
site preferences such as which order form you would like to
see open first. That way when you return to the order page,
you don't have to wait for a second order form to load. We
only require cookies on our secure site, so they will be
transmitted using encryption. « |
How will cookies enhance the Integrated
Data Processing, Inc. site? |
By using cookies, our server will know
your preferences allowing us to offer you more
personalization. You will be able to return to the site with
the same settings you chose on your previous visit, reducing
the need to reset your preferences. « |

How do
I enable cookies on my browser? |
You can order your browser to accept
all cookies or you may be able to set your browser to alert
you every time a cookie is offered. Then, your browser will
allow you to decide whether to accept them automatically or
