Stored snapshot, not a live feed. Figures cite Wikimedia pageviews and the GDELT Project, each with its own observation date, and are refreshed by scheduled jobs when sources respond. Source: GDELT Project. Figure dates are source observations. Retrieval is labelled separately, and a stale observation is marked stale. No promise of accuracy or rankings.

PulseOrbit is an AI trend radar that spots rising trends early and generates content, product, and niche ideas for creators and sellers.

PulseOrbit is operated by Glen Hankin, an individual in the United Kingdom. PulseOrbit is not a registered company.

Glen Hankin is not registered with the Information Commissioner's Office. This page does not include an ICO registration number. The terms of use are governed by the law of England and Wales.

This page explains cookies on PulseOrbit for visitors in the United Kingdom. The Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR) are the UK rules for storing or reading information on your device.

What a cookie is

A cookie is a small text file a site can store on your device. Similar technologies include local storage and session storage. Some storage is strictly necessary to provide a service you asked for. Analytics or advertising cookies need consent under PECR before they are set.

What PulseOrbit sets

Google Analytics cookies are optional. They stay off until you accept. Before you choose, and if you reject, the browser does not load Google's tag and does not set a Google Analytics cookie. Rejecting does not change how the pages work.

If you accept, and this deployment has a measurement ID configured, the browser loads Google's tag from googletagmanager.com and sends a page measurement to Google Analytics. Google's cookie documentation (opens in a new tab) says that tag sets a _ga cookie and a _ga_ cookie, each with a default lifetime of up to two years, to tell browsers and sessions apart. Browsers can expire them sooner. If the measurement ID is not configured, the tag is not loaded at all.

PulseOrbit stores your choice in this browser's local storage under the key pulseorbit.analytics-consent. The stored choice is accepted or rejected, plus the time it was saved. It is not sent to Google. The site reads it only to decide whether to load the tag. Saving that choice is strictly necessary so a refusal is remembered and the analytics tag stays unloaded. The site asks again after 183 days, or sooner if you clear site data.

There is no advertising or marketing cookie, and no advertising pixel. The typeface is delivered with the site. Opening a page does not ask Google Fonts, or any other font host, to set a cookie. YouTube is not embedded. A video title, when one is shown, is a normal link. YouTube does not set a cookie merely because the PulseOrbit page loaded. If you follow the link, YouTube's own policy applies from then on.

Google Trends figures, when shown, come from a daily server job. That job posts a fixed list of topics to DataForSEO for the United Kingdom and the United States. It does not run in your browser. It does not send your identity, your on-site search, or a cookie, and DataForSEO does not set a cookie because the PulseOrbit page loaded. If either server credential is missing, Google Trends is skipped.

Analytics and marketing

Google Analytics 4 is the only analytics tool offered here, and only after you accept. The page code turns off Google signals and ad personalisation. PulseOrbit does not build a marketing profile from a cookie, and it does not sell personal information. Google's documentation says that if the Analytics property is linked to Google Ads, the tag can set further cookies. This site does not load a separate advertising tag.

Your analytics choice

When a measurement ID is configured and this browser has no current choice, a notice at the bottom of other pages offers Accept analytics and Reject analytics. Neither is selected in advance. The same choice is here, and you can change it later.

Checking this browser…

Search addresses are not cookies

The search box puts your words in the page address, in a q parameter, so the page can filter topics already on the site. That is not a cookie, and it is not stored in a PulseOrbit database. The address can still appear in the host's request log. The privacy policy explains those logs.

Your browser

Your browser keeps its own history of pages you open. That history is under your control, in the browser, and PulseOrbit does not read it back. Browser settings can block or delete cookies. The Information Commissioner's Office explains cookies at ico.org.uk/for-the-public/online/cookies (opens in a new tab).

Subscription and free-limit cookies

Two httpOnly cookies are strictly necessary. They are not analytics cookies, and they are not set until you use the feature they support. po_pro is set after Stripe confirms PulseOrbit Pro. It holds a signed reference to the Stripe customer and subscription so the server can ask Stripe whether Pro is active. po_idea_quota is set when a free idea generation is counted. It holds the UTC day and the count. Clearing site data removes them from this browser. There is no password account and no separate database of those counts.

Stripe may also set cookies on Stripe's own Checkout and customer portal pages. Those pages are on Stripe's domain. PulseOrbit does not copy them.

If this changes

Advertising cookies will not be added quietly. A new non-essential cookie would need a choice under PECR, and this page would change first.
