Privacy Policy

Effective date: 1 January 2026

GeoPulse respects your privacy. This policy explains what data is collected when you use the GeoPulse website and mobile application.

1. Data We Do Not Collect

GeoPulse does not require account registration. We do not collect your name, email address, location, or any personally identifiable information through the website.

2. Analytics

The website is hosted on GitHub Pages. GitHub may collect standard server logs (IP address, browser type, referring URL) as described in the GitHub Privacy Statement. GeoPulse itself does not run additional analytics scripts.

3. Mobile App

The GeoPulse mobile app fetches publicly available news data from our feed. If push notifications are enabled, your device token is used solely to deliver news alerts and is not shared with third parties. We use Firebase Cloud Messaging (Google) to send notifications; see the Firebase Privacy Policy for details.

4. Cookies and Local Storage

The website uses browser localStorage only to remember your theme preference (dark/light mode). No tracking cookies are set.

5. Third-Party Content

Articles link to third-party news sites. Those sites have their own privacy policies which we do not control.

6. Changes

We may update this policy. The effective date above reflects the most recent revision.
