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
transient.amazon.com is a subdomain of amazon.com, the app publisher's own domain, so this is a first-party contact; I do not know the specific service behind this hostname. The app's label already declares extensive collection including device IDs, app interactions, and purchase history, so no data flow beyond the declared label is implied.
OpenAI — first-party
The domain is under amazon.com and is most likely operated by Amazon for the Amazon Shopping app. The label declares extensive collection and sharing categories, so this contact alone does not imply an uncovered data flow.
Google Gemini — first-party
transient.amazon.com is owned by Amazon, the developer of the Amazon Shopping app, making it a first-party domain. This contact is consistent with the app's declared first-party data practices.
