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
cdn-apple.com is Apple's content-delivery domain, so this is a first-party CDN contact for an Apple-published app (com.apple.Translate), most plausibly asset/model or resource downloads; the specific 'sequoia' subdomain's purpose is not something I can confirm. A first-party CDN fetch does not by itself imply a data-collection flow beyond the app's empty label, so nothing here appears undisclosed.
OpenAI — cdn
The hostname includes cdn-apple.com and most likely serves Apple-hosted content delivery infrastructure. No evidence is provided that this contact transmits personal data beyond content delivery, so it cannot be judged undisclosed from the label.
Google Gemini — cdn
sequoia.cdn-apple.com is a first-party content delivery network domain operated by Apple. Fetching static assets or service resources from a first-party CDN does not inherently imply undisclosed personal data collection.
