Cookie & Similar Technologies Notice
09Cookie & Similar Technologies NoticeThe few strictly necessary cookies and similar technologies Equatorium uses, and why there are no advertising or analytics trackers.
Last updated: November 4, 2026
This notice explains how Equatorium Corporation (“Equatorium”) uses cookies, local storage and similar technologies on its Website (equatorium.com) and Platform, and how you can control them. It forms part of our Privacy Policy.
We use only the technologies needed to sign you in, keep the Platform secure, take payments and remember your display preferences. We do not use advertising cookies, analytics cookies, tracking pixels or social media plug-ins.
1What these technologies are
“Cookies” are small text files that a website stores in your browser and reads back on later visits. Session cookies are deleted when you close your browser; persistent cookies remain until they expire or you delete them. First-party cookies are set by the site you are visiting; third-party cookies are set by another domain, such as a service embedded in the page.
“Local storage” and “session storage” are areas of your browser where a site can keep small amounts of data, such as a display preference. Pixels and web beacons are tiny images or scripts that report when a page or email is opened. We refer to all of these together as “cookies and similar technologies.”
2What we use
All of the technologies below are strictly necessary to provide a service you have asked for, or to keep it secure, except continuity, which is functional.
| Function | Set by | Purpose | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sign-in and session | Equatorium and our authentication provider | Keeps you signed in, identifies your session to the Platform and supports two-step verification. | Strictly necessary |
| Sign-up continuation | Equatorium | Lets you continue a sign-up application from the email links we send you. | Strictly necessary |
| Payment fraud prevention | Our payment processor | Prevents fraud on pages where you enter or update card details. | Strictly necessary |
| Continuity | Equatorium | Remembers, in your browser, the Quant conversation you last opened, and keeps a payment or other action you started from running twice if the page reloads. | Functional |
| Security and reliability | Equatorium and our hosting provider | Keeps the service secure and reliable and helps us fix errors. | Strictly necessary |
What we do not use
- No advertising or retargeting cookies.
- No analytics cookies or session-recording tools.
- No social media plug-ins or pixels.
If we ever add a technology that is not strictly necessary, we will update this notice first and ask for your consent where the law requires.
3Maps and other embedded services
The Platform’s maps come from a map provider. When your browser loads a map, it sends requests directly to that provider, which receives your IP address, browser information and the map area being displayed.
Card fields on billing pages are provided by our payment processor, which receives the card details you enter.
The current list of our service providers is available on request from legal@equatorium.com.
4Emails
Our emails are service messages: sign-up steps, security alerts, task and alert notifications, billing notices and policy changes. They contain links that perform a specific action, for example to confirm your email or to unsubscribe from a type of notification. We do not use our emails to track your browsing.
5Browser signals: Global Privacy Control and Do Not Track
We treat a Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal from your browser as a valid request to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal data associated with that browser, in line with applicable law. Because we do not use advertising or analytics technologies on the Website or Platform, and do not sell Website or Platform information, there is no further cookie-based processing for the signal to switch off. A GPC signal does not by itself opt your mobile device out of our Data Services, because we cannot link your browser to your device’s advertising ID; to do that, see our Your Privacy Choices page.
There is no agreed standard for responding to Do Not Track signals. Our practices are the same whether or not your browser sends one, since we do not track you across sites.
6How to control cookies
Most browsers let you view, block and delete cookies and local storage in their settings. Because the technologies we use are strictly necessary, blocking them will prevent you from signing in to the Platform, completing sign-up or adding a payment method; the public pages of the Website will still work. Clearing local storage resets your display preferences.
Where the law requires consent for any non-essential technology, we will ask for it before using that technology and let you change your choice at any time.
7Changes and contact
We will update this notice if we change the technologies we use, and change the “Last updated” date above. Questions can be sent to privacy@equatorium.com.
