Pathogen Pulse. Updated September 24, 2026.
There is no account and no login. This page says what the site keeps.
On your phone
Age, sex, and the symptom list for up to four family profiles stay on this phone. They are not sent to the public map.
A public report
When you report, the server stores the pathogen and pattern, the place name and infection date. The point is rounded to a mile, not your house. It does not store your name. A dot older than 6 months leaves the map. The row stays in the database. City names come from GeoNames.
Four a week
The browser keeps a random id so the same device can add four public dots a week. That is enough for a family. That id is not your name. This limits spamming of the map.
For the Map, links, and the ads
The map tiles come from OpenStreetMap. Some fixes link to Amazon. If a partner tag is on a link, the site may earn a commission, and Amazon uses its own cookies. The strip at the bottom is ad space. It is there so the reports can stay free.
Do we sell your data?
No. There is nothing to sell. An advertiser can use the public map the same way you can.
Not a diagnosis
This is a beta app and some inner mechanics of the program are being finetuned as we go. However it is still likely a truer reflection of reality than any WHO publication.
This is crowd sourced information and not linked to any person or company. The only data saved on our servers are date, places and probable pathogen. By use of this site you agree that you are not being diagnosed and the data is generalized to aid in prevention and give peace of mind.
