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 — classification split: anthropic=first-party, openai=cdn, gemini=cdn. A human reviewed this domain's claims before anything here published.
Anthropic Claude — first-party
lh3.googleusercontent.com is Google's own user-content hosting/CDN endpoint (commonly used to serve profile and other user images), so for a Google-published app this is a first-party contact rather than a third-party tracker; it could equally be described as a CDN. Fetching hosted account/profile imagery is consistent with the app's declared collection of Photos, Name, Email address and User IDs, and no third-party data flow is implied, so nothing here appears outside the label.
OpenAI — cdn
lh3.googleusercontent.com appears to be a Google-hosted content delivery domain, commonly used to serve images and other static user content. The provided label declares broad collection categories, and the contact alone does not establish an undeclared data flow.
Google Gemini — cdn
lh3.googleusercontent.com is a Google-owned content delivery network domain used to host static assets and profile images. Because it represents first-party infrastructure serving app content, the contact does not appear undisclosed.
