FAQ
Do you keep a copy of files from Google Drive?
No durable copy. Bytes stream Google Drive → worker → S3-compatible storage for the duration of the job.
Can I move instead of copy?
Yes. Move deletes the source after a verified successful upload when the provider supports delete.
Does a failed transfer use quota?
No. Only successfully completed transfers count toward monthly bandwidth.
