▬ LGL-07 // AI & ALGORITHMS DISCLOSURE

AI & Algorithmic Decisions

Last Updated: September 1, 2026 · Version: 2026-09-01 · In-App Parity: September 2026
01Purpose & Regulatory Scope

This disclosure provides comprehensive transparency regarding the role of automated logic, artificial intelligence, and algorithmic systems within Mining Rewards, in compliance with GDPR Article 22, the European Union Artificial Intelligence Act (Regulation (EU) 2024/1689), and Google Play Developer Policies.

02Summary: No Generative AI at Runtime

Mining Rewards does NOT run autonomous Generative AI (GenAI), Large Language Models (LLMs), or real-time deep-learning inference engines within the runtime client or backend gameplay flow:

  • The in-app mining mechanics, hashrate counters, block solutions, and reward distributions are 100% deterministic and governed by fixed mathematical formulas.
  • No user-facing dynamic AI text generation or interactive AI chatbots operate inside the App.
  • The Service does not fall within the scope of High-Risk AI Systems or General-Purpose AI (GPAI) under the EU AI Act.
03Deterministic Rule-Based Systems

The following features operate strictly through transparent, formula-driven database triggers:

  • Mining Pool Payouts: Computed via formula: payout = (player_hashrate / pool_hashrate) × block_reward.
  • Progression & Leveling: XP thresholds, badge unlocks, and daily task completions are validated through deterministic PostgreSQL constraints.
  • Notification Schedules: Streak reminders are dispatched at fixed local times (10:00 and 20:00) using deterministic cron schedules.
  • Anti-Abuse Striking: VPN and proxy detection relies on rule-based risk score lookups (proxycheck.io) and strike accumulation counters.
04System Authorship & Graphical Asset Transparency

Human Engineering & Copyright Ownership: In alignment with guidance from the United States Copyright Office (USCO Circular 61 / January 2025 AI Guidance) and Turkish Intellectual Property Law (Law No. 5846):

  • The entire system architecture, software code, database design, and game balance rules were designed, authored, and curated by human engineer Mert Verdi (Metic Apps). Coding assistants were utilized strictly as assistive compiler-level productivity tools.
  • Graphical Asset Transparency (EU AI Act Article 50(2)): Certain static background textures, avatar frames, and promotional illustrations were generated with assistive AI synthesis tools under direct human creative direction, selection, and post-processing. No AI assets depict real individuals, deepfakes, or deceptively generated synthetic media.
05GDPR Article 22 Rights & Human Intervention

Under GDPR Article 22, data subjects have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing which produces legal effects. In Mining Rewards:

  • Automated heuristics only flag accounts for review or temporarily throttle ad access; they NEVER permanently terminate an account or forfeit rewards without opportunity for human appeal.
  • All account terminations and reward disqualifications are reviewed by a human compliance officer before becoming permanent.
  • You retain the unconditional right to request human re-evaluation of any administrative action by emailing metic.apps@gmail.com.
06Third-Party Automated Processing

Third-party SDKs embedded in the App (Google AdMob, Unity Ads, Pangle) employ automated algorithmic systems for ad auction bidding, frequency capping, and ad-fraud detection. These operations are governed by our partners' respective privacy disclosures (see our Subprocessors Directory).

07EU AI Act Compliance & Contact

Mining Rewards complies with the transparency mandates of Regulation (EU) 2024/1689 (EU AI Act). We continuously monitor European AI Office guidelines to ensure our disclosures remain at the forefront of digital compliance.
