this is really cool. are the files really deleted or are they "deleted" in the snapchat sense of the word?

Is it a fact that SC doesn't actually delete the binary image files, and does store them on disk somewhere? I'm assuming they do, because who would actually delete them?

lurchpop,
They are absolutely, unequivocally delete from our servers! No trace of the files are kept whatsoever. I know it's our word against the sky, but files are truly only kept as long as their lifespan allows. When the timer strikes zero, the file is purged within seconds along with all database rows related to it.
Thanks for the feedback!
