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
seller-acs.aliexpress.com is a subdomain of aliexpress.com, the app publisher's own domain, so it is first-party app infrastructure (the 'acs' hostnames on Alibaba domains are commonly API gateway endpoints, though I cannot verify its exact function). The declared label already covers app interactions, user IDs, and order/account data flowing to the operator, so nothing here implies an undisclosed flow.
OpenAI — first-party
The domain is an aliexpress.com subdomain and most likely supports AliExpress seller/account services as a first-party endpoint. The app's label declares broad collection categories that could cover this contact, so an undisclosed flow cannot be established from the provided data.
Google Gemini — first-party
The domain seller-acs.aliexpress.com is owned by Alibaba/AliExpress and functions as a first-party API endpoint for the app. As a first-party request supporting app operations, it does not represent an undisclosed data flow.
