 #### Data transfer meter
 
-Any data that leaves the Azure region incurs data transfer and network bandwidth charges. These charges commonly appear in scenarios where an account is configured for geo-redundant storage or when an object replication policy is configured to copy data to an account in another region. However, these charges also apply to data that is downloaded to an on-premises client. The price of network bandwidth doesn't appear in the Azure Storage pricing pages. To find the price of network bandwidth, see [Bandwidth pricing](https://azure.microsoft.com/pricing/details/data-transfers/).
