Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

Pulse ("we", "our", "us") operates the pulsepage.dev website and service. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your personal information when you use our website monitoring service.

2. Information We Collect

Account Information

When you create an account, we collect your email address and password (stored as a secure hash, never in plain text).

Monitor Data

We store the URLs you choose to monitor, the CSS selectors you configure, check intervals, and snapshots of the monitored content. Screenshots may be captured for visual diff comparison.

Usage Data

We collect basic usage data such as login timestamps, feature usage, and error logs to improve the service.

Payment Information

Payments are processed by Stripe. We do not store your credit card number, CVV, or full card details. Stripe handles all payment data under their own privacy policy.

3. How We Use Your Information

• Stripe — for payment processing
• Email provider — to deliver notification and transactional emails
• Legal requirements — if required by law or to protect our rights

5. Data Security

We take security seriously. Your data is protected with encrypted connections (HTTPS), hashed passwords (bcrypt), rate limiting, and regular security reviews. However, no method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure.

6. Data Retention

We retain your account data and monitor history for as long as your account is active. When you delete your account, we remove your personal data within 30 days. Snapshots and change history are deleted when you delete a monitor.

You have the right to:

• Access your personal data
• Update or correct your information
• Delete your account and associated data

8. Cookies

We use localStorage to store your authentication token. We do not use tracking cookies or third-party analytics. Your theme preference (dark/light mode) is stored locally in your browser.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of significant changes by posting a notice on our website. Continued use of the service after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
