Research privacy

Research requests send the keywords, filters and your access key to the service. The key is hashed for account lookup. Payment is processed by Stripe; Pulse's billing service keeps account identifiers, credit balances and invocation receipts needed to fulfill access. Research receipts contain returned factual metadata. Operational logs may also contain request information.

The historical search does not send a prompt to an AI model provider. Reports are assembled in your browser. This page does not save your access key to persistent browser storage; a temporary checkout claim token is kept in session storage until you confirm that you saved the issued key. Treat your key as a password and keep it out of prompts and shared documents.

Do not enter confidential client information or personal data in search fields. Opening a source link visits that publisher's website, which has its own privacy practices. Hosting, billing and support records are subject to operational and legal retention; this page does not promise an unverified deletion schedule.

For access, correction or deletion requests, contact Randall@PulseAIStudio.com. Include a receipt or account identifier; never send your access key or card information.

Paid report recovery

For paid searches, this tab keeps a request ID, a SHA256 fingerprint of the key and search inputs, and an expiry time in session storage. It does not store the plaintext access key or research keywords in that recovery record. The same key and search can recover the same request after a refresh for up to 24 hours. An expired attempt requires your explicit choice before a new paid brief starts. Closing the tab may remove this recovery information. Enable tab storage to use paid search safely; download completed reports for your own records.

Website measurement

These public pages count visits, checkout openings and report-export clicks. The server also counts newly created research checkout sessions and successful first-run paid reports. Only daily totals and a broad referral category (ChatGPT, search, direct, other or unknown) are stored in this measurement system. It stores no IP addresses, research questions, access keys, account identifiers, raw referrer URLs or personal profiles. These are best-effort event counts, not unique visitors or verified recommendation results.

Your tab may keep one referral category in session storage until it closes. No analytics cookies or cross-site identifiers are used. Browser counters respect Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control. Server-side billing and research operations continue to work when browser counting is disabled. Daily measurement counters expire within 90 days. Existing billing records and hosting operational logs follow their separate purposes and retention; this limit does not describe Stripe, Vercel or downloaded aggregate reports.
