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
renderer-am.waze.com is a subdomain of the app's own waze.com domain, and the name suggests a regional map-rendering/tile endpoint, making it first-party infrastructure for the app's core navigation function. The app's label already declares collecting precise and approximate location plus app interactions, so this contact implies no data flow beyond what is disclosed.
OpenAI — first-party
The domain is a subdomain of waze.com and most likely supports Waze's own rendering/service infrastructure. The provided label declares extensive collection categories, so this contact alone does not establish an undeclared data flow.
Google Gemini — first-party
The domain renderer-am.waze.com is a subdomain of the app's own domain (waze.com), representing direct first-party communication for app operational functionality.
