In this article we confront a class of \(f(Q)\) gravity models with observational data of galaxy-galaxy lensing. Specifically, we consider the \(f(Q)\) gravity models containing a small quadratic correction when compared with General Relativity (GR), and quantify this correction by a model parameter...
