Privacy Policy

Pulse is a system and network toolkit for iOS developed by Marwan Aljasmi (the "developer", "we"). It measures your device and network, runs diagnostics, and gives you developer tools, all on the device in front of you. For privacy questions, contact: contact@aljasmi.info

Pulse has no sign-up, no user accounts, no advertising SDKs, no analytics SDKs, and no crash-reporting services. It does not track you across apps or websites. We operate no servers and keep no database of users, so we cannot see your device metrics, your network, your SSH hosts, or anything else you do in the app.

Apple's privacy manifest for Pulse says this directly: tracking is set to off, there are no tracking domains, and no data types are collected.

Pulse asks for a permission only when you open the tool that needs it. Each one maps to a single feature, and nothing is requested speculatively. You can review or revoke any of them in the iOS Settings app at any time.

Pulse is built to work on the device. A few tools do reach the internet, but every one of them is something you start by hand, and none of them ever send anything about you to us. There are no background, automatic, or hidden connections.

Everything Pulse keeps is stored on your device, inside your app's private space:

• SSH host details, keys, and passphrases, kept in the iOS Keychain and encrypted by the system.
• Monitoring history (CPU, memory, battery, network over time) in a local database in the app's sandbox.
• Imported App Privacy Report data and SSH session history, in that same local database.
• Widget snapshots in a shared container, so the home screen widgets can read them.
• Your settings and preferences.

This data never leaves your device. The one exception is the Keychain: if you have turned on iCloud Keychain, iOS may sync your SSH credentials across your own Apple devices, end-to-end encrypted, where only you can read them. We never receive any of it.

• Delete individual items (hosts, history, imports) inside the relevant tool.
• Uninstalling Pulse removes its local database and its Keychain items from the device.
• If you used iCloud Keychain, you can manage or remove synced credentials from the iOS Settings app.

Because we never receive your data, there is nothing for us to delete on any server.

Pulse contains no third-party advertising, analytics, or tracking code. The only third-party library that touches the network is dartssh2, which implements the SSH and SFTP protocols and connects only to the servers you configure. The external services listed above (CDN speed-test endpoints, public IP lookups, Apple's iTunes lookup) are contacted directly by the relevant tool, only when you use it, and act as service providers under their own privacy policies.

Pulse is a technical utility for general audiences, rated 4+. It is not directed at children under 13 and collects no personal data from anyone, children included.

Privacy laws such as the GDPR and CCPA grant rights over the personal data an organization holds about you. We hold none. Everything Pulse works with stays on your device, in your own hands. The tools described above let you view and remove it directly.

If a future version of Pulse changes how data is handled, this policy and the app's privacy manifest will be updated, and the effective date revised, before that version is released. Material changes will be noted in the app's release notes.
