1.About The Dustid Community 

Dustid was created to be an important and empowering new tool for individuals in the online world we now live in.  This website and the use of the Dustid tool on retail websites may just be features of the overall “tool” that is Dustid, which our users and our “community” trust, but the Dustid community is one we are dedicated to protecting and empowering – we do this in many ways.  The primary of these is. 

  • Giving community members, their friends and families, the ability to buy and receive from online retailers with only a phone number. 

  • Allowing a single place online where community members keep their physical shipping address, rather than having it stored across multiple retail websites. 

  • Empowering our community members to choose who knows their personal data without giving up their ability to shop online or receive gifts from others.
