Use of Cookies
In order to use the Summary of Deposits system, you must have cookies enabled within your browser. The latest version of the Summary of Deposits System makes use of user "sessions". User sessions allow the system to "remember" your search selections and other required information as you navigate from page to page. That temporary information is stored at the FDIC and accessed by a random session name. In order to match the user with the correct temporary information, a small piece of data, the session name, is written to a cookie on your hard drive. Nothing is written to your registry. Your user session remains active only during the current browser session. Once your browser is closed, or after a period of inactivity, the session information is deleted.
