Cookies are small text files placed on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile phone) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, provide a better user experience, and supply information to website operators.
Cookies may be set by the website you are visiting ("first-party cookies") or by third-party services that appear on the page ("third-party cookies"). They can be "session cookies" (deleted when you close your browser) or "persistent cookies" (remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them).
Interior Design Centre (interiordesigncentre.com) currently sets no cookies of its own. Instead, a small number of items are kept in your browser's own local storage, which stays on your device and is never sent to us automatically.
Cookies you may still encounter come from other companies, and only after you choose to go to them — for example when you click a product and are taken to the retailer, or when you pay through PayPal. Those cookies are set on their websites, not ours.
We use this storage to:
These items are needed for the Site to work and for your own choices to be respected. They are kept in your browser's local storage, not as cookies, and they do not require consent under PECR.
| Item | Purpose | How long it lasts |
|---|---|---|
| cookie_consent | Records the cookie choice you made on the banner | Until you clear your browser's site data |
| shopper_token | Keeps you signed in to a personal shopper account | Until you sign out or clear site data |
| idc_admin_token | Keeps the site administrator signed in (staff only) | Until sign out or site data is cleared |
No analytics service is connected to this Site at present, so no analytics cookies are set, whatever you choose on the banner. The banner offers an analytics option because the Site is built ready for one.
If we do connect Google Analytics in future, it will load only for visitors who have consented to analytics, with IP anonymisation switched on, and it would set cookies named _ga, _ga_*, _gid and _gat. This page will be updated before that happens. Google's own policy is at policies.google.com/privacy.
The Site earns commission when a visitor buys from a retailer after clicking a product link. That tracking happens on the affiliate network's and the retailer's own websites, using their cookies, once you click through. We do not set or read them.
| Set by | When | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| AWIN and the retailer | After you click a product link and leave this Site | Credits the referral if you go on to buy — typically 30 days |
| PayPal | Only on PayPal's own payment pages | Payment processing, security and fraud detection |
We receive no personal information from this tracking — only anonymous reports of clicks and sales.
When you first visit the Site, you will see a cookie consent banner allowing you to:
Choosing "Cookie Settings" lets you tick Analytics, Functional and Marketing separately, then press "Save Preferences". Essential storage is always on, because the Site cannot work without it.
To change your answer later, clear this site's stored data in your browser and visit again — the banner will reappear. Because the Site sets no cookies of its own, your choice mainly governs services we may add in future.
Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can typically:
