Does the daily bandwidth limit apply to streaming playback?

If I subscribe to the Standard plan, does the daily bandwidth (1TB) include streaming playback even if I share or stream video files?

    Hi lastism, thanks for messaging the Community!

     

    The daily bandwidth limit applies to any files accessed via a shared link, or when uploading to your account using a file request link.

     

    If the files are streamed via a shared link, then they would add to the daily bandwidth limit.

     

    If you have any further queries, feel free to message back.
