Privacy

No wallet connection, private key, or seed phrase is required.

01

Device grouping and subscriptions

Device names, optional hardware labels, public project identifiers and worker names are saved locally or to the signed-in account. Stripe handles subscription payments; card details are not stored by this site. The server keeps Stripe customer and subscription IDs, payment status, and the paid period to verify Pro access. Device grouping does not change project quotas or merge devices automatically.

02

What is stored locally

Without signing in, this browser keeps public Miner IDs and names, up to 3 devices per project on Free. A small cache of recently fetched numbers is kept for up to 24 hours.

03

What is sent to the server

To look up devices, the browser sends public Miner IDs to this site’s read-only service. The service requests public telemetry and reward records from iota-web.api.macrocosmos.ai. Quantus lookups send public reward addresses to sqm.quantus.com; XID and fly.ai use public explorer and monthly records. Local list storage does not mean IDs never leave the browser.

04

Hosting and technical logs

The hosting provider may process IP addresses, request metadata and technical error reports. Do not put passwords or other secrets in device labels.

05

Accounts and removing the list

Google sign-in is optional. After sign-in, the list is stored on the account (up to 3 devices per project on Free, or 100 per project on Pro) so it can be opened elsewhere. Export still creates a JSON file of public IDs and labels. Remove devices on the dashboard, or clear this site’s browser storage to erase the local copy.

06

Independent, read-only access

Public Miner ID lookup reads official reports only. An optional installed and paired Mac agent adds heartbeats, queue and worker state, remote start/stop/restart and agent updates. Logs require a separate opt-in. Agent 1.0.5 supports stopped-training recovery, off by default and available without Pro. The site does not move tokens or sign transactions. Public addresses can be linked to device activity and rewards; consider that visibility when sharing them.

Projects

Free supports 3 devices per project; Pro supports 100 per project. Project quotas are independent, and the device overview has no additional total limit. Google sign-in syncs the list across devices; without signing in it stays in this browser.

Usage analytics

We use Google Analytics to understand page visits, sign-ins, device additions and subscription entry points. Once configured, basic analytics runs by default without a prompt. We do not intentionally send email addresses, device names, Miner IDs, wallet addresses or mining earnings to Google Analytics. Page URLs exclude query parameters. Do Not Track (DNT), Global Privacy Control (GPC) and previously saved refusals disable browser analytics. Earnings emails require a separate opt-in.

Advertisement

Free users may see Google AdSense ads across the website. The advertising service may use cookies, IP addresses and browser information to serve and measure ads and prevent fraud. Pro members and members with an active trial do not see ads. Advertising privacy choices in applicable regions follow Google’s requirements.

Project requests store your account ID, project name, official URL and description for integration review. Each account may submit once a day.

Daily earnings email

Daily reports are opt-in and use your verified sign-in email. The email provider processes that address and your project earnings report for delivery; private keys and project read credentials are excluded. Report snapshots are retained for 7 days for retry and troubleshooting. Disable them in your account or through the email unsubscribe link. Sending pauses when Pro expires.

Earnings trends · Notification settings

Earnings snapshots are kept for 90 days and can be exported for free by their owner. Earnings charts and exports do not require Pro. Alerts and monthly emails are off by default and use the verified login email when enabled. Delivery stops after unsubscribe or subscription expiry. Notification jobs are retained for 7 days; unsubscribe links only cancel these notifications.

Device agents

The Mac agent is installed and paired explicitly to an account device using a separate credential; the server stores only its hash. Structured status samples remain for seven days; the latest 24 hours are shown, without raw logs. Heartbeats include queue positions, layer phase and miner status extracted from local logs, TAH process state, process CPU/memory and system load. Logs are off by default; enabling them uploads redacted excerpts up to 12KB. Excerpts older than 24 hours are hidden and cleared during heartbeat processing. Only TAH start/stop/restart is supported; command records remain for 7 days. Disconnect revokes the credential and deletes excerpts and queued actions.

AI log analysis

With Agent log uploads enabled, new crash excerpts are redacted and automatically sent to the AI service, up to 10 analyses per day. The same incident is not analyzed repeatedly. Only results and cited excerpts are retained; queued excerpts expire after 24 hours. AI suggestions are never executed automatically.

Alerts after 20 minutes of IOTA no longer participating, or Akash / Golem reported offline, following a healthy baseline. API failures do not trigger alerts. Up to 5 emails a day.

When you connect io.net or Vast.ai, credentials are encrypted and used only to read data from that platform, for up to 7 days. Disconnecting deletes the credentials stored here; you can also revoke access on the original platform.
