Privacy Policy
Effective Date: April 8, 2026
This Privacy Policy describes how RealQuant Inc. ("RealQuant", "we", "us", or "our") collects, uses, and discloses personal information in connection with the RealQuant Excel Add-in, the RealQuant web application at app.realquant.ai, and our marketing websites (together, the "Service").
The RealQuant Excel Add-in is an AI-assisted tool that helps commercial real estate professionals extract structured data from offering memorandums, rent rolls, and trailing-twelve-month profit-and-loss statements, and populate their Excel underwriting models with source-cited values. This Privacy Policy covers both the personal information you provide directly (for example, when creating a RealQuant account or signing up for a demo) and the Customer Content you upload to the Service for AI processing. For details on how we handle documents and data processed through the RealQuant Excel Add-in specifically, see the section "Information processed through the RealQuant Service (Application Data)" below.
Personal information we collect
Information you submit to us:
- Contact information, such as your first and last name, email address and phone number you may provide when you contact us or when you sign up for a demo or a newsletter.
- Feedback or correspondence, such as information you provide when you contact us with questions, feedback, or otherwise correspond with us online.
- Other data not specifically listed here, which we will use as described in this Privacy Policy or as otherwise disclosed at the time of collection.
Information we obtain from third parties:
We may maintain pages on social media platforms, such as LinkedIn, and other third-party platforms. When you visit or interact with our pages on those platforms, the platform provider's privacy policy will apply to your interactions and their collection, use, and processing of your personal information.
Automatic data collection:
We and our service providers may automatically log information about you, your computer or mobile device, and your interactions over time with our website, our communications and other online services, such as:
- Device data, such as your computer's or mobile device's operating system type and version, manufacturer and model, browser type, screen resolution, RAM and disk size, CPU usage, device type (e.g., phone, tablet), IP address, unique identifiers, language settings, mobile device carrier, radio/network information (e.g., WiFi, LTE, 4G), and general location information such as city, state or geographic area.
- Online activity data, such as pages or screens you viewed, how long you spent on a page or screen, browsing history, navigation paths between pages or screens, information about your activity on a page or screen, access times, duration of access, and whether you have opened our marketing emails or clicked links within them.
We use the following tools for automatic data collection:
- Cookies, which are text files that websites store on a visitor's device to uniquely identify the visitor's browser or to store information or settings in the browser for the purpose of helping you navigate between pages efficiently, remembering your preferences, enabling functionality, helping us understand website user activity and patterns, and for advertising purposes. For example, Google Analytics collects information about how users use our website, which we then use to compile reports that disclose trends without identifying individual visitors, and help us improve our website. For more information on Google Analytics, click here.
- Local storage technologies, like HTML5, that provide cookie-equivalent functionality but can store larger amounts of data, including on your device outside of your browser in connection with specific applications.
- Web beacons, also known as pixel tags or clear GIFs, which are used to demonstrate that a webpage or email was accessed or opened, or that certain content was viewed or clicked.
Information processed through the RealQuant Service (Application Data)
This section describes how we handle the content that customers upload to, or generate inside of, the RealQuant application (including the RealQuant web application and the RealQuant Excel add-in). We refer to this as "Customer Content." Customer Content is treated differently from the website information described above.
Customer Content we process:
- Commercial real estate documents that customers upload for analysis, including offering memorandums (OMs), rent rolls, trailing-twelve-month profit and loss statements (T-12), tax statements, leases, and related deal documents.
- Spreadsheet workbook data that customers provide when using the RealQuant Excel add-in, including cell values, formulas, and worksheet structure.
- Conversational prompts that customers type into the RealQuant chat interface.
- Extracted structured data that RealQuant produces from the above inputs (for example, property addresses, unit counts, rental rates, operating expenses).
How we process Customer Content:
Customer Content is used solely to provide the RealQuant Service to the customer who provided it. Specifically, we:
- Store documents in encrypted Azure Blob Storage, logically isolated per customer account.
- Process document text through large language model (LLM) services hosted in Microsoft Azure (specifically Azure OpenAI Service) to extract structured data, answer questions, and generate summaries. These LLM calls are made from within a Microsoft Azure tenant that RealQuant controls; the LLM provider processes the content as a sub-processor subject to its own data protection terms.
- Store extracted structured data in an encrypted Azure PostgreSQL database, logically isolated per customer account using row-level security.
- Encrypt all Customer Content at rest (AES-256) and in transit (TLS 1.2 or higher).
Our commitments regarding Customer Content:
- No training on Customer Content. RealQuant does not use Customer Content to train, fine-tune, or otherwise improve any machine learning model — neither our own models nor third-party models. We have configured our Azure OpenAI deployment so that customer prompts and completions are not used by Microsoft to train or improve OpenAI models.
- Per-account isolation. Customer Content is never shared across customer accounts. Each account's data is logically segregated at the database, object storage, and application layers.
- No sale of Customer Content. We do not sell, rent, or license Customer Content to third parties.
- Limited staff access. RealQuant personnel access Customer Content only when necessary to provide support, diagnose issues, or comply with law, and only under audit controls.
Retention of Customer Content:
Customer Content is retained for as long as a customer maintains an active account with RealQuant. Upon account termination, Customer Content is deleted within thirty (30) days unless (i) the customer has requested an export during that period or (ii) RealQuant is required to retain it to comply with law. Customers may also request deletion of specific documents at any time through the application or by contacting [email protected].
