+# Power BI Azure Maps Visual Data Residency
+
+The Azure Maps visual can get a users' tenant location and use it to call the correct Azure Maps geographic endpoints. For instance, if a user's tenant is located in Europe, Power BI calls the Azure Maps' `eu` endpoint `eu.atlas.microsoft.com`, ensuring that their data doesn't leave the Europe boundary. Similarly if users' tenant is in the US, `us.atlas.microsoft.com` is called and users' data doesn't leave the US boundary. For the rest of world, the Azure Maps visual calls `atlas.microsoft.com` redirecting them to the nearest region to fulfill their requests.
