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
mapping.lyft.com is a subdomain of lyft.com, the app publisher's own domain, so this is first-party infrastructure most likely serving map/geolocation functionality. The app's label already declares collecting approximate and precise location plus device IDs, so this contact implies no data flow beyond what is disclosed.
OpenAI — first-party
The domain is a Lyft subdomain and most likely supports the app's mapping functionality. Lyft declares collection and sharing of location and device-related data, so this contact does not imply an uncovered data flow.
Google Gemini — first-party
The domain mapping.lyft.com belongs directly to Lyft and serves as first-party infrastructure for map and navigation functionality within the app.
