Backups of different levels have different types:
Last-level (in this case, level 4) backups are full;
Backups of intermediate levels (2, 3) are differential;
First-level (1) backups are incremental.
A cleanup mechanism ensures that only the most recent backups of each level are kept. Here is how
the archive looks on day 8, a day before creating a new full backup.

The scheme allows for efficient data storage: more backups accumulate toward the current time.
Having four backups, we could recover data as of today, yesterday, half a week, or a week ago.
Roll-back period
The number of days we can go back in the archive is different on different days. The minimum
number of days we are guaranteed to have is called the roll-back period.
The following table shows full backup and roll-back periods for schemes of various levels.

Adding a level doubles the full backup and roll-back periods.
To see why the number of recovery days varies, let us return to the previous example.
Here are the backups we have on day 12 (numbers in gray denote deleted backups).

A new level 3 differential backup has not yet been created, so the backup of day five is still stored.
Since it depends on the full backup of day one, that backup is available as well. This enables us to go
as far back as 11 days, which is the best-case scenario.
The following day, however, a new third-level differential backup is created, and the old full backup is
deleted.

This gives us only a four day recovery interval, which turns out to be the worst-case scenario.
