About HeartRateTap

Our purpose

The project exists to make a basic manual pulse count easier when a timer is inconvenient. Instead of sensing your body, the site records the time between deliberate taps and converts the average interval into BPM. It is useful for a quick wellness reference and for learning how pulse timing works.

HeartRateTap is not a hospital, medical practice, diagnostic service, wearable sensor, electrocardiogram or certified medical device. It cannot identify an arrhythmia, measure blood pressure or oxygen saturation, or explain why a reading changed.

Who maintains the site

The HeartRateTap product and editorial team maintains the code, interface and articles. We do not present the team as clinicians or claim medical review where none has occurred. The source code is available in the public GitHub repository, so the timing approach and product changes can be inspected.

Questions, accessibility issues and correction requests can be sent to cloudhu2000@gmail.com. Include the page URL and the sentence or result you believe needs attention so we can reproduce the issue.

Editorial and corrections policy

• Original purpose: every guide must answer a distinct user question or document how the product works; we do not create near-duplicate pages merely for keyword variations.
• Named sources: health ranges and safety statements should link to organizations such as the American Heart Association, CDC, NHS or comparable public-health authorities.
• Clear limits: product estimates are described as estimates. We avoid unverified accuracy, testing-volume, expert-endorsement and medical-benefit claims.
• Visible review dates: substantive guides show a publication date and a content review date. A review checks links, product behavior and whether the cited source still supports the statement.
• Corrections: confirmed factual errors are corrected in the page and its review date is updated. Material changes are recorded in the public source history.

Editorial review is not the same as clinical review. Unless a page explicitly names a qualified medical reviewer and their credentials, readers should assume it has not been medically reviewed.

How we separate content and monetization

Articles and product guidance are written independently of advertisers. Advertising does not determine reference ranges, recommendations or which sources we cite. Advertising code is not placed on sign-in, registration, password-reset, account, checkout-success, alert or error screens. Any future ad placement must remain visually distinct from navigation and the tap controls.
