classified as first-party · 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 — undisclosed split: anthropic=false, openai=true, gemini=false. A human reviewed this domain's claims before anything here published.

Anthropic Claude — first-party

bunsen.yelp.com is a subdomain of yelp.com, the same publisher as the app (com.yelp.yelpiphone), so it is a first-party endpoint; I do not know the specific function of the 'bunsen' host (it could be internal event logging, but I cannot confirm that from the data given). The declaration fields read '(nothing declared)', which may reflect missing input rather than a genuinely empty privacy label, and a first-party connection alone does not establish a data flow outside the label, so undisclosed is set to false pending human verification of the actual App Store label.

OpenAI — first-party

The contacted domain is a yelp.com subdomain and therefore appears first-party to the Yelp app. Because the app declares no collection or sharing, this observed app-domain contact appears undisclosed.

Google Gemini — first-party

The contacted domain bunsen.yelp.com is a subdomain of Yelp's primary domain, making it first-party to the app. A first-party endpoint contact alone does not demonstrate an undisclosed data flow without details on the payload.

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 Tell us what to re-check — a misattributed domain, an outdated classification, a claim about your own app — and a human will review it.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).
