What MoniVitals does

The MoniVitals web app estimates your pulse from your palm using photoplethysmography (PPG): you rest the rear camera and flash against your palm, and the tiny color changes with each heartbeat are processed on your device into an approximate heart-rate estimate in beats per minute. MoniVitals is a general-wellness app, not a medical device.

Camera

The camera is used only while you are taking a measurement, to read the light changes at your skin. Frames are processed in memory on your device and immediately discarded. They are never stored, never uploaded, and never leave your device.

The web Palm scan uses the rear camera and flash against your palm for a guided pulse reading. Camera images stay in memory and are discarded. When you choose Save reading, the pulse trace, approximate estimate, signal quality, capture time, and palm placement label are saved locally in your browser's IndexedDB. No palm photograph or video is saved.

Information we collect

Without an account: none. Estimates and any clips you save are stored locally on your device only. In the web version, saved readings live in your browser's local storage and are not uploaded.

With an optional account: if you choose to create a free account (email, Google, or Apple sign-in), we store your email address and your backed-up profiles and saved-clip list (heart-rate estimates and session metadata) in your own private cloud space. Recorded sample files themselves always stay on your device.

Server logs: the hosting provider may process standard technical request logs to serve the site, maintain security, and diagnose problems. We do not use these logs for advertising profiles.
