Thank you for using the FX Pulse Chrome extension. Your privacy is important to us, and we are committed to protecting your personal information. This Privacy Policy explains what information the extension handles, how it is used, and your rights regarding your data.
FX Pulse does not require an account, registration, or login. We do not collect, store, or transmit any personal information such as your name, email address, or payment details.
The following data is stored locally on your device using Chrome's storage, and is never transmitted to our servers:
This data never leaves your device and can be removed at any time by uninstalling the extension or clearing the extension's storage.
To display live exchange rates, the extension requests European Central Bank reference (mid-market) rates from frankfurter.dev, with open.er-api.com as a fallback. These requests fetch currency rates only; they do not include your invoice amounts, targets, or any personal information. As with any web request, these services may technically receive your IP address as part of standard network communication. Please refer to their respective privacy policies for details.
When you set a rate watch, the extension checks exchange rates approximately every 30 minutes and displays a desktop notification when the market crosses your target rate. These checks only fetch public exchange rates; your targets are evaluated locally on your device.
FX Pulse displays a small advertising banner at the bottom of the extension popup. Ads appear only within the extension interface and never on the websites you visit. The extension does not read, modify, or inject content into web pages. Our advertising partner may collect limited, non-identifying technical information (such as approximate location derived from IP address, browser language, or device type) to serve and measure ads. We do not share your browsing history, invoice amounts, or any data you enter in the extension with advertisers.
Rates shown are European Central Bank reference (mid-market) rates. Your bank or transfer service applies its own spread; the converted figures shown by FX Pulse are a mid-market benchmark, not a guaranteed transaction rate. FX Pulse does not provide financial advice.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated effective date. We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically to stay informed about how we are protecting your information.
Thank you for trusting FX Pulse. Your privacy and security are our top priorities.
