1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small data files placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. They are widely used by website owners to make their websites work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information.

Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, BacktestHQ) are called “first-party cookies.” Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called “third-party cookies.” Third-party cookies enable third-party features or functionality (e.g., analytics, video content, and marketing) to be provided on or through the website.

2. Why We Use Cookies

We use cookies for several reasons. Some cookies are required for technical reasons in order for our Website to operate, and we refer to these as “strictly necessary” cookies. Other cookies enable us to track and target the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our Website.

Specifically, we use the following types of cookies:

• Strictly Necessary Cookies: Required for core site functionality including login, access management, and secure transactions.

• Performance/Analytics Cookies: Used to collect information about how users interact with the Website (e.g., pages visited, time on site). This data helps us improve performance and usability. Examples include cookies used by Squarespace and Memberspace analytics.

• Functionality Cookies: These remember your settings and preferences (e.g., language, time zone) to provide a more personalized experience.

• Third-Party Cookies: We may allow third parties, including service providers and analytics providers (e.g., Stripe, Squarespace, Memberspace), to set cookies that assist us in measuring performance or securing transactions.

3. Your Choices Regarding Cookies
