Every feed belongs to its operator and plays only when you tap it. “Live” is the result of PeakCam’s last health check, not proof of a live broadcast. Frames on tape are PeakCam’s own captures, every 15 minutes, of cams whose operators allow archiving; a frame taken while the resort’s 24-hour number was 6″ or more is kept as the “last storm on tape”. Timelapse clips are rendered from those frames every six hours (the last 24 hours, and a storm reel once the resort’s measured 24-hour snowfall reaches 8″); rights stay with the operator. How freshness is measured.
