Privacy Policy

Last updated: April 17, 2026

1. Overview

Pulse ("the Software") is developed and maintained by Refora Technologies ("we", "us", or "our"). This Privacy Policy describes how information is handled when you use the Pulse Monitor desktop application.

In short: Pulse collects zero personal data. Nothing leaves your device.

2. What Data Pulse Accesses

Pulse reads hardware sensor data from your computer, including (but not limited to):

  • CPU temperature, usage, and clock speed
  • GPU temperature, usage, power draw, and clock speed
  • RAM usage and available memory
  • VRAM usage (where available)

This data is fetched locally via LibreHardwareMonitor using kernel-level WMI and driver interfaces. The data exists only in your computer's memory while the application is running.

3. What Data Pulse Stores

Pulse stores a single JSON preferences file on your local disk at:

%AppData%\Refora\Pulse\settings.json

This file contains only your UI preferences such as selected tiles, opacity, polling rate, and overlay position. It contains no personal information, no hardware identifiers, and no telemetry.

4. What Data Pulse Transmits

None. Pulse makes zero network requests. It does not communicate with any server, API, analytics platform, or third-party service. The application works entirely offline, and no internet connection is required at any point during or after installation.

5. Third-Party Services

Pulse does not integrate with any third-party analytics, crash reporting, or telemetry services. The following open-source libraries are used purely for local functionality:

  • LibreHardwareMonitor (MPL-2.0) — Hardware sensor access
  • Newtonsoft.Json (MIT) — Local settings serialization
  • CommunityToolkit.Mvvm (MIT) — UI architecture

6. Children's Privacy

Pulse is a general-purpose utility that does not collect any data from any user, including children. No age verification is needed because there is no data collection to protect against.

7. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be reflected on this page with an updated "Last updated" date. Since Pulse collects no data, changes will be minimal and primarily reflect additions to the software's functionality.
