Summary
Pulsar has no accounts, no analytics and no telemetry. What it observes about your Mac stays on your Mac. This page lists every case in which data leaves your computer or reaches us.
Data the app keeps on your Mac
Pulsar stores its settings, the incidents it has recorded and the list of domains your apps have contacted in your user Library folder. None of it is uploaded. Deleting the app's Application Support folder removes it.
Network requests the app makes
Reverse DNS. To show domain names instead of IP addresses, Pulsar asks your system's DNS resolver for the name of remote addresses your apps are connected to. These queries go to the resolver you already use. You can turn this off in Settings.
Updates. Pulsar requests the release feed and, after you confirm, the installer from pulsarmac.app. The request carries no identifier; like any web request it reveals your IP address to our hosting provider, Cloudflare. You can turn the automatic check off.
License activation. Once licenses are on sale: when you enter a license key, Pulsar sends the key and the device name you confirm at activation to Dodo Payments, and checks from time to time that the license is still valid. The device name defaults to your computer's name and you can change it before activating; it is used only to tell your Macs apart in the device list. Pulsar does not send your user name or anything it has observed. Nothing is sent if you do not enter a key.
Diagnostics
The diagnostics report in Settings contains the app version, Mac model and counts and settings. It contains no process names, domains, host names, user names or file paths. It is only copied to your clipboard; it reaches us only if you paste it into a message to us.
Purchases
Once licenses are on sale: purchases are processed by Dodo Payments as merchant of record. Dodo Payments collects your payment details; we never see card numbers. We receive your name, email address, country and order details so that we can deliver the license key and answer support requests. Dodo Payments' privacy policy applies to the data it collects.
This website
pulsarmac.app sets no cookies and loads no analytics or third-party scripts. Your language choice is remembered in your browser's local storage. The site is hosted on Cloudflare, which processes requests, including IP addresses, to deliver the pages.
When you contact us
If you write to us, we keep your message and address for as long as needed to answer and to follow up on the issue. We do not send marketing email and do not share or sell personal data.
Your choices
You can ask us what purchase data we hold about you, or ask us to delete it where we are not required to keep it, by writing to [email protected].
Changes
If the app starts making any new kind of network request, this page and the FAQ are updated first, and the change is listed in the release notes.

概要
Pulsar 没有账户，不做统计分析，也不上传遥测数据。它在你的 Mac 上观察到的内容只保存在本机。本页列出数据离开你的计算机或到达我们的全部情形。
应用保存在本机的数据
Pulsar 把设置、已记录的异常事件和各应用连接过的域名记录保存在你的用户资源库目录中，均不上传。删除应用的 Application Support 目录即可清除。
应用发出的网络请求
反向 DNS 查询。为了显示域名而不是 IP 地址，Pulsar 会向系统的 DNS 解析器查询各应用所连接远端地址的名称。这些查询发往你本来就在使用的解析器，可在设置中关闭。
更新。Pulsar 向 pulsarmac.app 请求更新源，并在你确认后下载安装包。请求不带任何标识；与所有网页请求一样，它会让托管服务商 Cloudflare 看到你的 IP 地址。自动检查可以关闭。
许可激活。许可开售之后：当你输入许可密钥时，Pulsar 会把密钥和你在激活时确认的设备名称发送给 Dodo Payments，并不定期校验许可是否仍然有效。设备名称默认为计算机名称，激活前可以修改，仅用于在设备列表中区分你的各台 Mac。不会发送用户名或 Pulsar 观察到的任何内容。不输入密钥就不会有这类请求。
诊断信息
设置中的诊断信息只包含应用版本、Mac 型号、计数与设置项，不包含进程名、域名、主机名、用户名或文件路径。它只会被复制到剪贴板；只有当你把它粘贴进发给我们的消息时，我们才会收到。
购买
许可开售之后：购买由记录商户 Dodo Payments 处理。付款信息由 Dodo Payments 收集，我们看不到卡号。我们会收到你的姓名、电子邮箱、国家或地区以及订单信息，用于交付许可密钥和处理支持请求。Dodo Payments 收集的数据适用其隐私政策。
