GDPR (EU), KVKK (Turkey), CCPA/CPRA (California), and LGPD (Brazil) require us to inform you about automated processing of your personal data, including profiling and algorithmic decision-making.
This document explains what algorithmic logic we use in Mining Rewards, what we do not use, and your rights.
The following systems operate on deterministic formulas. The formulas may change as we balance the game, but they are always rule-based, not learned from your data.
Mining payouts. Each block: your_payout = (your_hashrate / total_hashrate) × block_reward. Simple proportional formula.
Hashrate calculation. Sum of base hashrate + active boost values from items, achievements, rank perks. Time-limited boosts expire on a fixed schedule.
Rank tier assignment. Numeric thresholds. Crossing a threshold immediately moves you up or down a tier.
Leaderboard ordering. Order by a single numeric score (MRC balance or lifetime hashrate). Deterministic.
Achievement unlocks. Fixed numeric requirement (mine X blocks, watch Y ads, etc.). No personalization.
Push notification scheduling. Fixed times of day (Daily 10:00, Task 14:00, Streak 20:00, Penalty 22:00 local time) or specific events (boost expiry). No ML prediction of engagement.
Anti-fraud heuristics. Rule-based heuristics may flag an account for human review. We do not issue automated bans solely on heuristics — every suspension is reviewed by a human operator.
- We do not run machine learning models that score your value, churn risk, or behavior.
- We do not use AI to personalize ads. Google AdMob may, subject to your consent via UMP — see Privacy Policy.
- We do not use AI to personalize gameplay difficulty against you.
- We do not use AI to set individualized prices.
- We do not use AI to make solely automated decisions that produce legal effects or similarly significant effects on you.
- We do not use generative AI to produce in-app text, image, audio, or video content that is presented to users as part of the game. The graphics, text, music, and other assets in the App are either created by us or licensed from third-party human creators / royalty-free sources. If we ever incorporate generative-AI-produced assets, we will label them as "AI-generated" within the App, in accordance with EU AI Act Art. 50 transparency obligations.
Because our systems are rule-based and any consequential decision (account suspension, reward request approval) involves human review, the strict prohibitions of GDPR Article 22 do not apply. However, you still have:
- The right to be informed about automated processing (this document).
- The right to express your point of view.
- The right to contest a decision.
- The right to request human intervention.

Some integrated third parties may use AI/ML for their own services:
- Google AdMob — may use machine learning for ad targeting and fraud detection. We do not have insight into model details. See Google's Privacy Policy and your ad consent options.
- Unity Ads (Unity Technologies) — as an AdMob mediation partner, may use machine learning for ad serving and fraud detection. We do not have insight into model details. See Unity's Privacy Policy.
- Google Sign-In — may use ML for account security. See Google's Privacy Policy.
These are governed by the respective third party's terms.
As of the Last Updated date, the App does not deploy any general-purpose AI model, high-risk AI system, or AI system subject to specific transparency obligations under the EU AI Act. If we introduce any AI feature in the future, we will assess it against the Act's risk categories and:
- If it qualifies as a general-purpose AI ("GPAI") deployment, we will publish a model description and documentation in line with Annex IX.
- If it interacts with users (e.g., chat assistant), we will provide the transparency notice required by Art. 50(1).
- If it generates synthetic content (text, audio, image, video), we will label outputs in line with Art. 50(2)-(4).
- If it is classified as high-risk, we will implement the conformity assessment and post-market monitoring obligations of Chapter III.
If we introduce any AI/ML-driven feature in the future (personalized achievement recommendations, predictive churn alerts, ML-based fraud detection used to make solely automated decisions), we will:
- Update this disclosure.
- Update the Privacy Policy.
- Provide a meaningful description of the logic involved and its consequences.
- Where required, request your explicit consent or offer an opt-out.
