Privacy & Cookie Policy

1. Data controller

The controller of personal data processed through this website is Federico Orsini, operating QuantMetrics Lab as an independent research project.

2. Data we process

Most QuantMetrics Lab research content and indicator data can be viewed without creating an account or providing identifying information.

Depending on how you use the site, the following information may be processed:

• Technical data: IP address, browser and device information, requested URL, timestamps, security events and server logs necessary to deliver and protect the website.
• Contact data: name, email address and the contents of a message if you contact QuantMetrics Lab by email or through a contact form.
• Newsletter data: email address, subscription status and, where enabled, technical information used to manage delivery and subscription preferences.
• Advertising and consent data: consent choices, device/browser identifiers and information processed by advertising providers when advertising services are enabled, subject to the choices available to you.

QuantMetrics indicator JSON files and research outputs do not contain visitor personal data.

3. Purposes and legal bases

Personal data may be processed for the following purposes:

• operating, maintaining and securing the website, based on the controller’s legitimate interest in providing a reliable and secure research service;
• responding to enquiries and communications, based on legitimate interest and, where relevant, steps taken at your request before entering into an agreement;
• sending newsletters or launch/research updates where you have subscribed, based on your consent;
• displaying and measuring advertising, and personalising advertising where permitted, based on consent where required by applicable law;
• complying with legal obligations and establishing, exercising or defending legal claims.

Where processing is based on consent, you can withdraw that consent at any time. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal.

4. Cookies, local storage and consent choices

The website may use cookies or similar technologies that are strictly necessary for operation, security and consent management. Advertising technologies may also use cookies or local storage, depending on your location and choices.

For users in the European Economic Area, United Kingdom and Switzerland, QuantMetrics Lab uses Google’s consent management solution to request and record choices for advertising and related purposes where required. For relevant U.S. states, a privacy message may provide an opt-out mechanism for the sale or sharing of personal information.

Where a privacy or consent control is displayed on the site, you can use it to accept, reject or manage available choices. Browser settings can also be used to delete or block cookies, although doing so may affect some website functionality.

5. Google AdSense and Google advertising services

QuantMetrics Lab uses or intends to use Google AdSense to finance free access to research content. Third-party vendors, including Google, may use cookies or similar technologies to serve and measure ads. Where ad personalisation is permitted, ads may be based on previous visits to this or other websites.

Depending on your consent and Google settings, advertising may be personalised or non-personalised. Google may receive information such as the page URL and IP address when its services are integrated into a website.

More information: How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services and Google advertising technologies .

You can manage Google ad personalisation through Google Ads Settings.

6. TradingView market-data widget

The main QuantMetrics Lab dashboard may display a market-data ticker supplied by TradingView. According to TradingView’s widget documentation, its financial widgets do not set cookies, but information required to provide the widget may include the embedding page URL, widget type, displayed symbol and IP address.

More information is available in TradingView’s Privacy Policy .

7. Email, contact requests and newsletter subscriptions

If you contact QuantMetrics Lab, the information you provide is used only to respond to your request and for any necessary follow-up.

Where a newsletter or notification form is made available, QuantMetrics Lab uses MailPoet to manage subscriptions and email delivery. Subscription may use a confirmation step (double opt-in). You can unsubscribe using the link provided in emails or by contacting QuantMetrics Lab.

MailPoet may process information necessary to provide its sending service. More information is available in Automattic’s Privacy Policy .

8. Recipients, service providers and international transfers

Personal data may be processed by service providers acting as processors or independent controllers where necessary to operate the website and the services described above. These may include:

• the website hosting and infrastructure provider (Aruba);
• Google, in connection with AdSense and consent-management services;
• MailPoet / Automattic, where email delivery services are used;
• TradingView, when the market-data widget is loaded;
• technical, security or professional service providers where reasonably necessary.

Some providers may process information outside the European Economic Area. Where required, international transfers are governed by the safeguards made available by the relevant provider under applicable data-protection law.

9. Data retention

Data is kept only for as long as necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, taking account of technical, contractual and legal requirements.

• contact correspondence is retained for the time reasonably necessary to handle the request and related follow-up;
• newsletter data is retained until you unsubscribe, subject to limited retention where necessary to document consent or comply with legal obligations;
• security and server logs are retained according to technical and security needs;
• data processed independently by third-party providers is retained according to their respective policies.

10. Your data-protection rights

Where the GDPR applies, you may have the right to request access to your personal data, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability where applicable, and to object to certain processing. Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw consent at any time.

Requests can be sent to info@quantmetricslab.com. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority. In Italy, this is the Garante per la protezione dei dati personali .

11. Security and technical logs

Reasonable technical and organisational measures are used to protect the website and personal data against unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure or destruction. No internet service can, however, guarantee absolute security.

Hosting and security systems may automatically record technical logs for reliability, troubleshooting, abuse prevention and cybersecurity purposes.

12. Changes to this policy

This policy may be updated when the website, research services, advertising setup or legal requirements change. The current version and its last-updated date will always be published on this page.

This notice is intended to describe the actual processing carried out through quantmetricslab.com and should be updated before materially new tracking or data-processing services are introduced.
