It depends on what started the clock. Three hours from a court order or a reasoned government notice; two hours from a user report of intimate or impersonation content; thirty-six hours for the specified harmful categories. Planisphere records the notice when it arrives and the removal when it is reported, and seals the elapsed interval against the window that class carries.

None of it is observation of the removal, and none of it is a safe-harbour determination.
