Defining Cookie Usage
At HongKongQuant, we utilize cookies—small text files stored on your device—to interpret how our research portal is accessed. These files are essential for maintaining session integrity, particularly when users engage with our complex quant trading data visualizations and proprietary algorithmic modeling interfaces.
Our use of these technologies is not for the purpose of personal identification, but rather for hardware performance optimization and security validation (ensuring that the traffic we receive is legitimate and non-automated).
