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 — analytics
h-adashx4ae.ut.taobao.com is a subdomain of taobao.com, an Alibaba Group domain, and the 'ut'/'adashx' hostname pattern corresponds to Alibaba's UserTrack mobile analytics endpoints — so this is corporate-affiliated (effectively first-party) analytics rather than a third-party tracker, though I cannot verify the specific endpoint's exact function from the data given. The app already declares collecting App interactions, Device or other IDs, Crash logs and Diagnostics, which plausibly covers an analytics telemetry flow, so nothing here appears outside the label.
OpenAI — analytics
The taobao.com subdomain appears associated with Alibaba/Taobao telemetry or analytics infrastructure. The app declares collection of app interactions, device identifiers, diagnostics, and browsing history, so the contact alone does not establish an undisclosed data flow.
Google Gemini — analytics
The domain belongs to Alibaba's UTAnalytics (User Track) infrastructure used for app telemetry and analytics. Because AliExpress is owned by Alibaba Group and declares collecting app interactions, device IDs, and diagnostics, this contact appears disclosed.
