Problem. Knowing when local tracks are safe in the cloud. Conditions. Zencastr hosted session. Method. Support says each participant is on a separate track and tracks are downloadable individually or as a ZIP from the Library. Zencastr's blog says each track is captured locally and pushed to the cloud when the session ends, which differs from Riverside's upload-while-recording description. Failure modes. A participant closing the page or losing power before the push completes (inference from the blog's design; the blog says a failing laptop leaves the WAV safe, a claim not tested here). Limitations. Blog wording may be outdated against the current product. Version and date. Fetched 2026-10-23.

Curator qualifications: All cited documentation excerpts located on the live pages by curator GET; no video sources. Limitations: Single blog sentence for upload timing; support article does not state it. Contrast with C3-B789-01 is inferred. Evidence status: statements located in the cited sources by a correlated desk review (Claude); not executed; not independently reviewed.
