Cookie Policy
Last updated: January 26, 2026
We use cookies to keep you logged in and to make our services work. We do not use cookies for advertising or tracking across other websites.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help websites remember your preferences and keep you logged in.
2. Cookies We Use
BackQuant uses only essential cookies required for our services to function:
Authentication Cookies
These cookies keep you logged in to your BackQuant account. They are set when you sign in and are required to access your account and subscription features.
Session Cookies
Temporary cookies that help our website function properly. These are deleted when you close your browser.
Terminal Access Cookies
If you subscribe to the BackQuant Terminal, cookies are set on the .backquant.com domain. This allows your authentication to work across our subdomains (e.g., backquant.com and terminal.backquant.com).
These cookies are essential for terminal subscribers to access the service without logging in repeatedly.
3. Third-Party Cookies
Some third-party services we use may set their own cookies:
- Stripe: May set cookies during the payment process for security and fraud prevention
- Authentication providers: May set cookies to manage your login session
These services have their own cookie policies. We do not control the cookies they set.
4. Analytics
We may use analytics tools to understand how our services are used. If we do, this data is aggregated and anonymised — it is not used to identify or track individual users. Any analytics cookies would be used solely to improve our products.
5. What We Don't Use
- Advertising cookies — we don't display ads or work with ad networks
- Cross-site tracking — we don't track you across other websites
- Social media pixels — we don't use Facebook, Twitter, or other social tracking pixels
- Remarketing cookies — we don't use cookies to show you ads elsewhere
6. Managing Cookies
You can control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to:
- View what cookies are stored
- Delete cookies individually or all at once
- Block cookies from specific sites
- Block all cookies (though this will prevent you from logging in)
Note: If you block or delete authentication cookies, you will be logged out and will need to sign in again to access your account.
7. Changes & Contact
We may update this policy from time to time. Changes will be posted here with an updated date. Continued use of our services constitutes acceptance of any changes.
