contents We describe the dynamical, photometric, and spectroscopic data available for stars targeted by Spitzer and Herschel to search for cold circumstellar dust emission from debris disks, a collection that we name the Cold Debris Disk Surveys (CDDS). These data include Hipparcos and Gaia parallaxes, 0.4-1250 micron photometry, spectral types, effective temperatures, gravities, bolometric luminosities, visual extinctions, metallicities, lithium abundances, rotational periods, projected rotational velocities, the Ca~II HK and IR triplet activity indicators, and X-ray luminosities for 3675 stars. Within this sample, we investigate the frequency of stellar and planetary companions (including potential new proper motion companions); use the data to assign CDDS stars to the field or one of many moving groups, open clusters, or stellar associations; and investigate correlations between stellar activity indicators. In future papers, we plan to explore the magnitude and frequency of infrared excess emission as a function of host star properties; to search for new companions with Gaia; and to examine the evolution of infrared excesses with the ages of stars in clusters and the field.
