Bandwidth

How is Bandwidth calculated?

The bandwidth is calculated according to the sum of data transmitted to and from the target site: request headers + request data (POST) + response headers+response data.

The traffic used during your trial will be listed on your dashboard but will not be counted towards your bill.
