Does the Google Analytics SDK use SSL?

Does the SDK for Google Analytics uses SSL, and thus would need an encryption approval letter for use in an iPhone app?

In case their is any confusion, Apple does require an export compliance letter for SSL

It appears to be a NO. How did I arrive at this conclusion? first I found that for Google Analytics to use SSL, it has to send all data to the https: version of google's server. See: https://www.sslshopper.com/article-enable-ssl-for-google-analytics.html . Then I found a blog post where someone monitored google analytics' connection(s) through iOS, and it wasn't using https:.

See: Monitor Google Analytics requests on an iPhone Application and http://jordan.broughs.net/archives/2012/07/monitoring-google-analytics-for-ios.
