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 — cdn
mzstatic.com is widely recognized as Apple's static-asset content delivery domain (App Store/iTunes artwork and media), so for an Apple-published app like TestFlight this is a first-party CDN fetch rather than a third-party tracker; ownership was not supplied in the finding data, so this rests on the domain's well-known association with Apple. Fetching static assets does not by itself imply a data flow beyond the app's declared label, so no undisclosed collection can be established from what is given.
OpenAI — cdn
The mzstatic.com domain is commonly used by Apple for static content delivery, but no ownership evidence is provided here. A contact to a likely CDN alone does not establish a data flow absent from the app's label.
Google Gemini — cdn
s.mzstatic.com is a content delivery network (CDN) operated by Apple to serve static assets for its services. Routine loading of static resources from a first-party CDN does not constitute undisclosed data collection or sharing.
