This page is a summary, not the binding text. The legal source of each right is the linked document or law. If anything here conflicts with our Terms of Service or Privacy Policy, the linked document controls.
1. Rights everyone has
1.1 Read the rules before agreeing
You have the right to read the Terms of Service, Privacy Policy, Cookie Policy, and Disclaimer before creating an account, and to decline to use the Service. We make all of them available at /legal.
1.2 Get the service as described
When we describe a feature in product copy or documentation, we owe you a reasonable effort to deliver it. We do not warrant uninterrupted availability, perfect accuracy of market data, or future profitability — those limits are spelled out in the Disclaimer and the limitation-of- liability clause in the Terms.
1.3 Cancel your account at any time
You can stop using QuantMyStocks at any time. To delete your account, email [email protected]. We will close the account within 30 days and remove personal data except where legal retention is required.
1.4 Be informed of material changes
When we make a material change to the Terms, Privacy Policy, or Disclaimer, we will post an in-product notice and update the version + effective date at the top of the affected document. If you keep using the Service after the new effective date you accept the change; if not, you can close your account.
1.5 Use your own content
You own the community posts, comments, and other content you submit. We have a licence to host and display it on the Service; see the "User-generated content" section of the Terms.
1.6 Reach a human
You can email a real human at [email protected] for support and at [email protected] for legal questions. We try to respond within 5 business days for support and within 30 days for legal requests.
2. Privacy rights (everyone)
2.1 Know what we collect
Our Privacy Policy lists every category of personal data we collect, why, on what legal basis, and how long we keep it. If we ever start collecting something new we will update that document and notify you.
2.2 Access your data
You can request a copy of the personal data we hold about you. Use our Data Subject Request page or email [email protected]. We respond within 30 days.
2.3 Correct your data
If something we hold about you is wrong or out of date, you can ask us to fix it. Most account fields you can edit yourself in Settings; anything else, email us.
2.4 Delete your data
You can ask us to delete your personal data. We will, except where retention is required by law (e.g. tax records). Backups containing your data are rolled forward on a 30-day cycle, so a deleted record may persist in backup storage for up to 30 days after deletion.
2.5 Receive your data in a portable form
On request, we will send you a structured, machine-readable copy of your personal data (typically JSON) so you can take it with you.
2.6 Withdraw consent
Anything you opted into (e.g. non-essential cookies, optional product-update emails) you can opt out of, at any time, without affecting your access to the core Service.
2.7 Complain to a regulator
If you believe we have handled your data unlawfully, you can complain to your local data-protection authority. We strongly prefer you contact us first — most issues are misunderstandings we can resolve quickly — but you do not need our permission to complain.
3. Additional rights — European Economic Area, UK, Switzerland
Under the EU and UK General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), you additionally have the right to:
- Restrict our processing of your data while a dispute is resolved (Art. 18);
- Object to processing based on our legitimate interests (Art. 21);
- Not be subject to fully automated decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects (Art. 22). The leaderboard rankings on this Service are not used to make legally significant decisions about you.
- Lodge a complaint with your national data-protection authority — for example, the Information Commissioner's Office (UK), the Irish Data Protection Commission, the CNIL (France), or your country's equivalent.
4. Additional rights — California
If you are a California resident, the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 ("CCPA") and the California Privacy Rights Act of 2020 ("CPRA") give you specific, enumerated rights. The complete disclosure required by California law — including the precise categories of personal information we collect, the sources, the purposes of use, retention periods, and the mechanics of exercising each right — is in our California Privacy Notice.
In summary, you may:
- Right to Know what personal information we collect, the sources, how it's used, and who it's disclosed to;
- Right to Delete personal information we collected about you, subject to limited exceptions;
- Right to Correct inaccurate personal information;
- Right to Opt-Out of Sale or Sharing for cross-context behavioural advertising — we do not sell or share, so there is currently nothing to opt out of;
- Right to Limit Use of Sensitive Personal Information — we do not collect any "sensitive" categories as defined by CPRA;
- Right to Data Portability in a structured, machine-readable format;
- Right re. Automated Decision-Making — we do not make solely-automated decisions about you that produce legal or similarly significant effects;
- Right to Non-Discrimination for exercising any of these rights — we will not deny you the Service, change your pricing, or degrade quality because you exercised a right;
- "Shine the Light" Request (Cal. Civ. Code § 1798.83) — once a year, request a list of personal information disclosed to third parties for their direct-marketing purposes in the previous calendar year. We make no such disclosures.
To exercise any of these rights, see the California Privacy Notice or email [email protected] from the email address on your account. We will acknowledge within 10 business days and substantively respond within 45 days (extendable to 90 with notice). You may also designate an authorized agent — see the California Privacy Notice for the process.
5. Additional rights — India
Under the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (DPDP Act), Indian residents have the right to:
- access information about the personal data we process about them;
- correct, complete, update, or erase personal data;
- nominate another person to exercise these rights in the event of death or incapacity;
- grievance redressal — contact us first at [email protected]; if unresolved you can escalate to the Data Protection Board of India.
6. Rights specific to financial information
Even though we don't provide investment advice, we want to be clear:
- You are not obliged to follow any leaderboard, ranking, or backtest output.
- We do not have a fiduciary duty to you — there is no advisory relationship. See the Disclaimer.
- You can stop using rankings or any other feature at any time without affecting other parts of your account.
- If you connect a brokerage account to any automation we offer, you can disconnect it from the broker side at any time, regardless of anything in our app.
7. What you can ask us to never do
- Sell or share your personal data with advertisers (we don't, and you can confirm that in writing on request).
- Make decisions about you that have legal or similarly significant effect using only automated processing.
- Send you marketing email if you opt out — transactional emails (sign-in alerts, security notifications, breach notifications) will continue because they are required to operate the Service.
8. How to exercise any right
- For everyday account changes — use Settings in-product.
- For data-protection rights — see the Data Subject Request page.
- For everything else — email [email protected].
Exercising any right is free and we will not retaliate, withdraw features, or change pricing because you exercised one.
