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 medium — classification split: anthropic=first-party, openai=analytics, gemini=first-party. A human reviewed this domain's claims before anything here published.
Anthropic Claude — first-party
aliyuncs.com is Alibaba Cloud's domain, and the 'log' subdomain pattern corresponds to Alibaba Cloud's Log Service (SLS) log-ingestion endpoints, here apparently for a video-cloud component; since AliExpress is an Alibaba app, this reads as first-party cloud infrastructure rather than a third-party tracker, though the telemetry it carries is analytics-like in function. Any logging of interactions, diagnostics, crash data or device IDs to this endpoint appears covered by the app's declared collection categories, so nothing here indicates an undisclosed flow.
OpenAI — analytics
The aliyuncs.com hostname is Alibaba Cloud infrastructure, and the log subdomain suggests logging/telemetry. The app declares App Interactions, Device or other IDs, Crash Logs, and Diagnostics, so this contact does not clearly imply an undeclared data flow.
Google Gemini — first-party
The domain belongs to Alibaba Cloud (Aliyun), which is owned by Alibaba Group, the parent company of AliExpress. Because it is first-party logging infrastructure and the app discloses collecting diagnostics and app interactions, this contact does not appear undisclosed.
