← Measured in the wild

entitlements.itunes.apple.com

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

Anthropic Claude — first-party

entitlements.itunes.apple.com is an Apple-operated domain under apple.com, contacted by Apple's own App Store app, so it is a first-party endpoint (apparently serving purchase/subscription entitlement checks). First-party operational contact by the vendor's own app does not imply a data flow beyond the app's own function, and Apple's system apps are not covered by third-party store privacy labels here, so no undisclosed flow can be established from this data.

OpenAI — first-party

The itunes.apple.com domain is operated by Apple and the contact is consistent with App Store entitlement functionality. No evidence provided shows collection or sharing beyond that service operation.

Google Gemini — first-party

entitlements.itunes.apple.com is an Apple-owned domain used for first-party app entitlement and purchasing services within the App Store. As core first-party functional infrastructure, this contact does not indicate an undisclosed data flow.

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 Tell us what to re-check — a misattributed domain, an outdated classification, a claim about your own app — and a human will review it.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