2.datadog.pool.ntp.org

classified as unknown · 2

This page aggregates measured, corroborated evidence: donors' iPhones recorded apps contacting this domain, every claim below was reported by separate accepted donations and published under a human verdict (later rows for an approved app inherit its verdict). A contact is a measurement, not an accusation — it does not show what data was sent.

What our research panel found AI-drafted · human-reviewed

We ask several independent AI models the same question and publish their answers separately — cross-vendor agreement is evidence against fabrication, and disagreement is worth seeing. 3 of 3 models answered, overall confidence medium — classification split: anthropic=unknown, openai=unknown, gemini=analytics. A human reviewed this domain's claims before anything here published.

Anthropic Claude — unknown

This is an NTP Pool Project hostname (a vendor subdomain in the pool.ntp.org zone, apparently allocated for Datadog's software) used for network time synchronization, not a tracking, analytics, ad, CDN, or first-party endpoint, so none of the offered categories fit well; I cannot verify from the given data who operates the specific servers behind it. NTP queries convey little beyond the device's IP and do not imply a data flow the label fails to cover, and the app already declares diagnostics/crash-log collection.

OpenAI — unknown

The domain appears to be an NTP time-service hostname associated with a Datadog pool naming pattern, but ownership and the exact service use are not provided. A time synchronization contact alone does not establish a data flow beyond the app's broad declared diagnostics, device ID, and performance-data collection.

Google Gemini — analytics

2.datadog.pool.ntp.org belongs to Datadog's vendor pool on NTP.org, used by Datadog's monitoring and analytics SDK for accurate timestamping. The app explicitly declares collecting diagnostics, crash logs, and performance data.

Think something here is wrong?

Evidence and research improve when people push back. Tell us what to re-check — a misattributed domain, an outdated classification, a claim about your own app — and a human will review it. Responses can take up to 30 days.

If you leave an email it is encrypted at rest and opened only to answer you — never shared, never used for anything else. It is erased 30 days after we resolve this (or 180 days if it is still open) without you asking, and you can erase it sooner at any time; either way your correction stays, anonymously. Leave it blank and your request is fully anonymous from the start (we store no IP address either way).
