SOURCE POLICY & FRESHNESS

Know where every number comes from.

24 of 24 categories have a successfully checked ranking snapshot. A category can have one working comparison while other requested rankings remain unavailable.

All times below are UTC. Brisbane is UTC+10. The server checks which tasks are due every five minutes. Only due sources are fetched; unchanged content does not create duplicate snapshots. Collection uses public data and deterministic parsers, with no paid AI data-generation service.

Source period, publication date and collection date are different. “Checked” does not mean the source contains observations from today. Failed validation preserves the previous verified data and is retried after three hours. Source schema or methodology changes require review.
