Snap Business Help not fetchable. Sources disagree: top 125-230 px, bottom 150-384 px (150/150, 150/300, 150/330 [AdKit attributes to Snap], 175/269 for Story ads w/ CTA, 12%/20%). Most conservative rule: top 230, bottom 384, sides 60 (AdKit buffer). Collection ads need ~450 px at the bottom (one guide). Snap's Ads Manager has a Safe Zone toggle - authoritative.
DerivedConfidence low. No direct source. Computed from a related placement or a broadcast convention, and labelled as a proxy.

No platform publishes this. Use the proxy named in the notes below rather than a made-up number.
No source found for Spotlight (organic) safe margins; every figure found applies to Snap ads. Left null. Do not reuse the ad numbers without a label.
Where sources disagree
Sources give Snapchat ad margins from 125 to 230 px at the top and 150 to 384 px at the bottom. We use 230 px top, 384 px bottom and 60 px sides. For organic Spotlight there is no source at all, so that tab shows no number on purpose.
