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
experiment-allocation.yelp.com is a subdomain of yelp.com, the same publisher as the app (com.yelp.yelpiphone), and the name suggests first-party A/B test/feature-flag allocation rather than a third-party tracking service. The provided record shows no declared label content at all, which more likely reflects missing input than an affirmative 'Data Not Collected' claim, so I cannot conclude the contact is undisclosed; note that experiment allocation may still involve a device or user identifier, which a reviewer could check against the actual App Store label.
OpenAI — first-party
The domain is a Yelp subdomain and appears to support Yelp's experiment allocation, making it most likely a first-party service. The app declares no data collection or sharing, so this measured contact appears undisclosed.
Google Gemini — first-party
The domain experiment-allocation.yelp.com is owned by the app publisher (Yelp) and is used for first-party experiment allocation and feature testing. First-party functional requests do not inherently imply undisclosed data collection without additional evidence.
