Privacy Policy

CLI Pulse — Last Updated: April 2, 2026

Overview

CLI Pulse is a developer tool for monitoring usage, quotas, and activity across supported AI coding and CLI providers such as Codex, Claude, Gemini, and other integrations added over time.

This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, where it is stored, and what choices you have.

Information We Collect

Account Information

• Email address
• Authentication identifiers required to sign you in
• Account profile information returned by the authentication provider

Depending on the sign-in method you use, authentication may be handled through email sign-in, password sign-in, one-time code verification, or Sign in with Apple.

Device and Sync Information

• Device name, device type, and platform
• Helper registration metadata
• Pairing and cloud sync state
• Last-seen timestamps and helper version

Usage and App Data

• Provider usage summaries, quota percentages, reset times, and related metadata
• Session summaries and alert state
• App settings and provider enablement preferences
• Subscription status and entitlement information

Local Provider Detection Data

On a Mac, the helper may inspect local process state, CLI configuration, browser cookies, Keychain items, or other locally available provider session artifacts in order to detect supported provider usage and quota information.

This local inspection happens on your device. CLI Pulse is designed to sync the resulting usage metadata, not raw secrets such as passwords, browser cookies, API keys, or refresh tokens.

How We Use Your Information

• Authentication: To sign you in and maintain your account
• Service delivery: To display usage, quota, cost, and alert information inside the app
• Cloud Sync: To sync data across your devices when enabled
• Device management: To register and manage helper-connected devices
• Subscriptions: To restore and enforce subscription entitlements
• Support and reliability: To improve debugging and product support

Data Storage

CLI Pulse uses a combination of local device storage and hosted backend services.

• Some data is stored locally on your device, including helper state and local snapshots used for provider fallback behavior
• Cloud-synced account, device, session, provider, and settings data may be stored in backend infrastructure operated for CLI Pulse
• Authentication and database services may be provided through Supabase

Data Retention

• Local snapshots and helper state remain on your device until removed, overwritten, or unpaired
• Cloud-synced data may be retained as needed to provide account history, dashboards, alerts, and subscription functionality
• Retention behavior may change as product tiers and sync features evolve

Data Sharing

We do not sell your personal information.

We may share data only with the service providers necessary to operate CLI Pulse, such as authentication, database, hosting, analytics, notification, and subscription infrastructure providers.

Third-Party Services

• Supabase: Authentication and backend data services
• Apple: Sign in with Apple and in-app subscription billing through StoreKit
• Static hosting providers: Public product pages and legal document hosting

Supported provider usage data may be derived from local sessions or APIs associated with third-party products such as Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, or other provider services you use. CLI Pulse does not claim ownership over those services or their policies.

Your Choices and Rights

• View data associated with your account inside the app
• Sign out of the app
• Disconnect or unpair helper-connected devices
• Disable notifications at the operating system level
• Request account deletion from within the app where supported

Children's Privacy

CLI Pulse is not intended for children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will update the revision date on this page.
