UA tends to use Central Time (where Chicago and Houston are located) for most things when no time zone is noted

Doubt you have any, as a worldwide operation, and a website that can be access anywhere, it would add generally unneeded complexity for the cutoff to be based on your personal timezone which UA can not know for sure. (and then add in corporate VPNs)
