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
googleapis.com is Google's own API infrastructure, and the 'googlehomefoyer-pa' host is a Google private-API backend for Google Home/Wifi device management, so for a Google-published app (com.google.OnHub) this is a first-party service endpoint rather than a third-party tracker. Because we only see the hostname and not the payload, we cannot establish that any data collected here falls outside the (empty) declared label, so undisclosed is not asserted.
OpenAI — first-party
The domain is under googleapis.com and appears to be a Google service endpoint, consistent with the app's first-party functionality. No evidence is provided about what data was transmitted, so an undisclosed data flow cannot be determined.
Google Gemini — first-party
googlehomefoyer-pa.googleapis.com is a first-party Google API endpoint used for Google Home device management functionality. As an operational first-party backend contact, this request does not inherently demonstrate undisclosed tracking or data collection.
