This notice explains what the marketing site collects and what we do with it, and summarizes how the Kenshiki Pulse iOS app handles your data.

Marketing site notice

Last updated: July 14, 2026

Who we are. This site is operated by Kenshiki, Inc., based in Tacoma, Washington, United States. You can reach us by email at hello@kenshikilabs.com.

What we collect. If you email us, we receive your message and your email address. The site itself does not ask for personal information to browse it.

Why we collect it. To respond to you and follow up. We do not use the marketing site to make credit decisions.

How we handle it. We do not sell your information. We do not share it except with people at Kenshiki who need it to reply to you, and the vendors below who help us operate the site.

Cookies and storage. We use localStorage for your light/dark theme preference. If we add analytics later, they will be denied by default and load only after you choose to accept.

Vendors. We use a small number of vendors to operate the site: a hosting provider for the site itself and an email provider to deliver messages to our inbox. Each processes only what it needs to do its job, under its own policies.

Important separation. This site is a marketing surface. It is not connected to any credit-decision production system, and no lending, scoring, or consumer-report data is collected, stored, or processed here.

Kenshiki Pulse app

Privacy in the iOS app

What Pulse is. Kenshiki Pulse is an iOS app that proves, on your device, that your phone is still being carried and used by you. Its data practices are separate from the marketing site above.

Continuity signals stay on device. Pulse reads your phone’s signals (motion and activity, location, barometer, magnetometer, battery and thermal state, and cellular presence) and processes them on your device. Raw motion readings, location trails, sensor readings, and AI output are not transmitted to us or anyone else, are not sold, and are not used to track you across apps or websites. Only a derived, minimized summary leaves your device, and only when you choose to bond to a partner website.

Location. Pulse uses coarse location and visit monitoring, including in the background, only to keep your on-device status current. It does not build or store a history of where you go off the device. One exception, always user-initiated: during a verified call you start, the call’s liveness heartbeats include your location, shown to you before you share it, so the institution can confirm a live, present caller for that call only.

Face ID. Pulse uses Face ID, or your device passcode, to unlock the app. Biometric data is handled entirely by iOS and the Secure Enclave; the app never sees, stores, or transmits it.

Sign-in keys. Pulse can hold sign-in keys you approve with your face. Their private keys are generated inside your phone’s Secure Enclave and never leave the device: not synced, not backed up to Kenshiki, not recoverable by anyone who does not have your face and your phone. When you register or sign in at a website, the only thing transmitted is the standard message that website needs, sent directly to it.
