There is a rich ecosystem of LC apps and services because of LC's open API. The only thing the API's allow you to do is invest in loans and transfer money in and out of your account. I would be quite shocked if any service (such as lending robot) is able to operate without recording any transactions occurring. I hope users wouldn't be offended by the (very general) information revealed above, but I suppose some could.

Presumably LC itself is recording the transactions? It's obvious that apps would want to do so as well, but that certainly isn't a necessity. An app could remember a transaction long enough to ensure that it had posted, and then forget about it forever.
