operated by Forter Inc. · classified as tracker · 1

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 high. A human reviewed this domain's claims before anything here published.

Anthropic Claude — tracker

Forter Inc. provides fraud-prevention and identity/device-fingerprinting services, so despite the 'cdn4' hostname this subdomain most likely serves Forter's SDK and receives device/behavioral signals rather than acting as a neutral content CDN; the fraud-detection purpose means 'tracker' is a best-fit but imperfect label. eBay's label declares collecting and sharing Device or other IDs, User IDs and app interactions with third parties, which plausibly covers this flow, so nothing here shows an undeclared data type.

OpenAI — tracker

Apple identifies the domain owner as Forter Inc., a fraud-prevention and risk-decisioning provider, so this contact most likely supports transaction/security tracking. The app declares collection and sharing of relevant identifiers, app interactions, location, and personal information, so the contact is not clearly outside the label.

Google Gemini — tracker

Forter is a fraud prevention platform that uses device telemetry and interaction data to assess transaction risk. The contact does not appear undisclosed because eBay declares collecting and sharing Device or other IDs, App interactions, and diagnostic 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 Tell us what to re-check — a misattributed domain, an outdated classification, a claim about your own app — and a human will review it.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).
