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
googleapis.com is Google's own API infrastructure, and the '-pa' subscriptions endpoint appears to serve subscription/entitlement checks for the first-party Google Gemini app, so this is first-party service traffic rather than a third-party tracker. The app already declares collecting purchase history, payment info, and user/device IDs, which covers the data flow this endpoint implies.
OpenAI — first-party
The domain is a googleapis.com subdomain and appears to be a Google first-party service, likely related to subscriptions. The app declares collection of payment information, purchase history, identifiers, and extensive other data categories, so this contact is not clearly outside the label.
Google Gemini — first-party
The domain is owned by Google, which develops the Google Gemini app, and is used for first-party Google subscription services. Because it is standard first-party infrastructure, this contact does not indicate an undisclosed third-party data flow.
