The same site,
with the lights off.
Privacy that only works in easy conditions is not privacy. Mask.ID is built to be reached from anywhere — including through Tor.
The onion mirror
Mask.ID maintains an onion service — the same site, served inside the Tor network, with no exit node in the path:
maskid4buuvdr2fuur255ia4m42wc7y2nmvfr75cgsqic5g4qcvldfad.onion
Open this in Tor Browser. Onion addresses are self-authenticating — the address itself is the site’s cryptographic key, so there’s no certificate to check.
Built to work here
Zero external requests. No CDNs, no third-party fonts, no analytics, no trackers — ever, on any page. Nothing here phones home, so nothing can leak your visit.
Works with JavaScript off. Tor Browser on “Safest” disables scripts; this site stays fully readable and navigable without them. Animation and conveniences load only when your settings allow.
No accounts, no cookies, no fingerprints. Reading Mask.ID requires nothing from you. Becoming a member requires only a key you generate yourself.
New to Tor?
Tor is a free network that routes your connection through several volunteer relays, so no one in the middle — your internet provider, your network, or even the site — can see who is connecting from where. An onion address (ending in .onion) is a site’s private entrance on that network.
How to visit — about a minute
Already use Brave? You don’t need to download anything — open a Tor window (Menu → New private window with Tor) and paste our onion address. Done.
Otherwise, the standard way:
- Install Tor Browser from torproject.org/download (Windows, macOS, Linux, Android). On iPhone/iPad, use Onion Browser.
- Open it and wait a few seconds for it to connect.
- Paste our onion address into the address bar. That’s it — you’re on Mask.ID over Tor.
Brave’s Tor window is the quickest option; for the strongest anonymity, Tor Browser is the most hardened.
Why you might use it
- Your provider or network can’t see that you’re using Mask.ID at all.
- It works where the normal Mask.ID domain is censored or blocked.
- No certificate authority to trust — the onion address is the key, which suits a platform built on proving identity cryptographically.
Security concerns you need to know
Tor protects your connection, not your on-chain identity. Your Mask ID is a transparent PIVX address, so its activity stays public on the blockchain — Tor hides that you’re visiting, not what your address has done. For funds you want unlinked, use PIVX’s shielded transactions.
Signing in takes one extra step. Tor Browser deliberately forgets everything when you close it — history, cookies, and any data a site stored, including the encrypted wallet Mask.ID normally keeps in your browser. That forgetting is the privacy you came for, so we don’t fight it: each Tor session, you’ll recover your wallet from your seed words and choose a fresh nickname and local password. A little less convenience is the fair price of a connection nobody can see — just keep your seed words close (and offline).
Avoid lookalikes: only trust the onion address shown on this page (and, in reverse, only trust a Mask.ID reached at our real domain). Copycat onion addresses are a common scam — and since Tor sign-in means typing your seed words, entering them on a fake Mask.ID would hand a scammer your wallet. Check the address, every time.
