💰 Monetize Protected Data

Transform your encrypted data into a sustainable revenue stream.

iExec DataProtector enables you to monetize your protected data through signed orders - a flexible system that lets you specify exact conditions for data access. Whether you're a data provider, researcher, or business owner, you can generate income from your valuable datasets while maintaining complete privacy and control.

How it works: You create and publish signed orders that define who can access your data, how much they pay per use, and how many times they can access it. Users pay automatically each time they process your data, giving you precise control over monetization.

📝 Signed Orders (DataProtector Core)

How it works: You create and publish signed orders that specify the exact conditions for accessing your protected data. Each order defines:

• Authorized App: Which iApp can process your data
• Authorized User: Who can access your data (specific address or any user)
• Price per Access: Cost for each individual use
• Number of Access: Maximum times the data can be used
• Usage Counting: Each data processing decrements the available access count

// Create a signed order with specific conditions
const grantedAccess = await dataProtectorCore.grantAccess({
  protectedData: '0x123abc...', // Your data address
  authorizedApp: 'email-processor.apps.iexec.eth', // Specific iApp only
  authorizedUser: '0x456def...', // Specific user only
  pricePerAccess: 5000000000, // 5 RLC per individual use
  numberOfAccess: 100, // Maximum 100 total uses
});

console.log('Signed order created:', grantedAccess);

Perfect for:

• Direct partnerships with known clients
• Precise control over access conditions
• Simple setup with specific partners
• Exact counting of data usage
