Pulse privacy policy
Last updated: October 20, 2026
Pulse is a feed of polls: you vote, then see how everyone else voted. This page explains what Pulse keeps about you, why, and how to delete it.
What Pulse collects
- An anonymous account. Pulse creates one for you the first time you open it. There's no sign-up, and we never ask for your name, email or phone number.
- Your votes and streak. Which option you picked on each poll, and how many days in a row you've voted.
- Polls you've seen and hidden, so the feed doesn't repeat itself and hidden polls never come back.
- Whether your phone passed a genuine-app check. On Android, Pulse asks the app store to confirm it's the real app on a real device, to stop fake votes. We keep only the yes or no answer.
- Your birth year, if you give it. It's optional and never shown to anyone. We use it to check that Pulse is right for your age, and to pick better polls.
- Basic technical information, such as your IP address and device type, which any online service receives when your phone connects to it. We use it only to keep Pulse running and secure.
How it's used
- To count one vote per person and show you the results after you vote.
- To keep your streak and stats.
- To choose which polls to show you next.
- To check that Pulse is used by people 13 and over.
- To prevent abuse, such as fake votes.
Results are only ever shown as totals. Nobody can see how you voted.
What we don't do
- We don't sell your data or share it with anyone.
- We don't show ads or track you across other apps.
How it's protected
Your data is stored securely and encrypted on its way between your phone and our servers.
Children
Pulse is for people 13 and over. If you tell us you're under 13, we delete your account straight away. If you believe a child under 13 is using Pulse, contact us and we'll delete their data.
Deleting your data
- In the app: open the You tab and tap Delete my data. Your account, votes, streak and birth year are deleted straight away.
- By email: write to codingbeastofficial@gmail.com with the subject "Delete my Pulse data" and your account ID, shown at the bottom of the You tab. We delete your data within 30 days and reply when it's done.
What's deleted: your account, votes, streak, birth year, and the polls you've seen and hidden. Your past votes are also removed from the poll totals.
What's kept: nothing linked to you. Basic technical information (such as IP address and device type) is kept for up to 7 days for security, then deleted automatically.
Changes
If Pulse starts collecting something new, we'll update this page first and change the date at the top.
