Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

HoneyQuantFields ("HQF", "we", "us", or "our") provides quantitative trading workstation software engineered natively for Windows desktop environments. We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal data. This Privacy Policy explains our practices regarding data collection, storage, and handling when using the HoneyQuantFields desktop application and website (https://www.honeyquantfields.com).

2. Local-First Architecture & Credential Security

HoneyQuantFields operates on a local-first architectural model:

• API Keys & Private Credentials: All exchange API keys, secrets, passphrase hashes, and private signing keys configured by users (for connected venues including Lighter DEX, QFEX, Hyperliquid, and Aster) are stored strictly on your local Windows storage. They are never transmitted to HoneyQuantFields servers.
• Direct Peer Connections: Order routing, tick telemetry, and orderbook streaming connect directly from your desktop machine to the respective exchange endpoints via secure, authenticated WebSockets and low-latency REST feeds.
• No Intermediary Custody: HoneyQuantFields does not operate as a broker, custodian, or financial intermediary. We do not hold, process, or have access to your digital assets or trading capital.

3. Data Collection & Analytics

We do not collect personal financial data or trading records. The limited data we may process includes:

• Application Diagnostics: Crash reports, GPU render adapter compatibility, and unhandled exception traces to improve workstation stability across Windows releases.
• Website Logs: Standard web server connection metadata (IP addresses, user-agent headers) required for edge security and DDoS mitigation via our CDN provider (Vercel).
• Beta Onboarding: Discord handles or public addresses voluntarily submitted by users requesting beta activation keys.

4. Zero Third-Party Data Selling

We do not sell, rent, monetize, or trade your personal data, workstation configurations, trading strategies, or telemetry to third parties, data brokers, or advertising networks under any circumstances.

5. Children's Privacy

HoneyQuantFields is designed exclusively for quantitative developers and professional market participants. We do not knowingly collect personal information from individuals under 18 years of age.
