Effective May 2026.
Pulse of the Hill (“we,” “us,” or “the Service”) is a research platform for government-affairs professionals. This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have. We have deliberately kept it short.
When you use the Service, we collect:
The underlying lobbying-intelligence data presented in the Service (LDA disclosures, Congress.gov bill records, committee calendars, fly-in registry) is public-record data. We do not infer or attribute personal information about end-users or members of Congress beyond what those public records contain.
We do not sell your information. We do not share customer content or account data with third parties for advertising or marketing. We do not use customer content to train machine-learning models — ours or anyone else’s.
The Service aggregates data from public sources, including but not limited to the Senate Office of Public Records LDA database (lda.gov), Congress.gov, the U.S. House and Senate committee schedules, and publicly posted announcements by trade associations and advocacy organizations. We attribute and link to source records where possible.
We use a small number of vendors to operate the Service. Each operates under its own SOC 2 program and standard data-protection terms:
We do not use third-party analytics or session-replay services on the Service.
We retain account information for the duration of your subscription and for a reasonable period thereafter for legal, accounting, and audit purposes. You may request deletion of your account at any time by emailing privacy@pulseofthehill.com. Public-record data presented in the Service is not deleted on request, as it does not constitute personal information under applicable law.
We follow the security practices described on our Security page, including encryption in transit and at rest, US-only data residency, access controls, and incident-response procedures. No system is perfectly secure; we notify affected customers within four hours of detecting a material incident.
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have rights to access, correct, or delete personal information we hold about you, to restrict or object to processing, or to data portability. To exercise these rights, email privacy@pulseofthehill.com. We respond within thirty days.
The Service uses cookies strictly necessary to authenticate sessions and remember preferences. We do not use advertising cookies or cross-site tracking.
The Service is intended for business use. We do not knowingly collect information from children under 13.
We may update this policy from time to time. Material changes will be announced to customers via email at least thirty days before they take effect.
