Privacy Policy
Last updated: January 25, 2025
Your privacy matters to us. This policy explains what data we collect, why we collect it, and how we handle it.
Information We Collect
Account Information
When you sign up, we collect your email address and any profile information you choose to provide (like your username, display name, and profile photo). If you sign in through Google or Apple, we receive basic profile information from those services.
Content You Create
We store the posts, comments, and reactions you make on Quant. This includes any stock tickers you mention, price targets you set, and sentiment votes you cast.
Portfolio and Positions
If you add stocks to your watchlist or track positions in the app, we store that information to provide you with relevant content and features. We don't have access to your actual brokerage accounts.
Usage Data
We collect information about how you use Quant, including which features you use, content you view, and how you interact with other users. This helps us improve the app and personalize your experience.
Device Information
We collect basic device information like your device type, operating system, and app version. This helps us fix bugs and optimize performance across different devices.
How We Use Your Information
- To provide and maintain Quant's features
- To personalize your feed and recommendations
- To send you notifications about activity relevant to you
- To analyze usage patterns and improve the app
- To detect and prevent fraud, abuse, or violations of our terms
- To communicate with you about updates, features, or support
Information Sharing
Public Content: Posts, comments, and profile information you share on Quant are visible to other users. Your watchlist and positions are private by default unless you choose to share them.
Service Providers: We work with third-party services for things like hosting, analytics, and push notifications. These providers only access your data as needed to perform their services and are bound by confidentiality obligations.
Legal Requirements: We may disclose information if required by law, legal process, or government request. We'll notify you when possible unless legally prohibited.
We don't sell your personal information to advertisers or data brokers.
Data Security
We use industry-standard security measures to protect your data, including encryption in transit and at rest. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we can't guarantee absolute security.
You can help protect your account by using a strong, unique password and not sharing your login credentials.
Your Choices
Account Settings: You can update your profile information, change notification preferences, and manage your privacy settings within the app.
Delete Your Account: You can request deletion of your account and associated data by contacting us. Some information may be retained as required by law or for legitimate business purposes.
Data Export: You can request a copy of your data by contacting our support team.
Data Retention
We keep your account information as long as your account is active. If you delete your account, we'll remove your personal information within 30 days, except for data we're required to retain for legal or security purposes.
Posts and content you've shared may remain visible even after account deletion if they've been quoted, shared, or are part of ongoing conversations.
Children's Privacy
Quant is not intended for anyone under 18. We don't knowingly collect information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we'll delete it.
California Residents
If you're a California resident, you have additional rights under the CCPA, including the right to know what personal information we collect and how it's used, the right to delete your information, and the right to opt out of sales (though we don't sell your data).
International Users
Quant is based in the United States. If you're using the app from outside the US, your information will be transferred to and processed in the US, which may have different data protection laws than your country.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this privacy policy from time to time. If we make significant changes, we'll notify you through the app or by email. Your continued use of Quant after changes take effect means you accept the updated policy.
