These logs are tagged with your [Account ID](/fundamentals/account/find-account-and-zone-ids/) and will be stored exclusively in the European Union (`eu`) or the United States (`us`), depending on the region you configure. Customer Metadata Boundary supports these two regions only; by default no boundary is applied and logs may be stored in Cloudflare's core data centers globally. CMB uses its own region setting, separate from [Regional Services regions](/data-localization/region-support/#region-types). For example, if you select the `eu` Customer Metadata Boundary, metadata will **only** be sent to Cloudflare's core data center (the centralized processing facility, as distinct from the globally distributed edge data centers) located in the European Union. -An exception is made if "Allow out-of-region access" is enabled. When enabled, Customer Logs will still be stored in the configured regions but will be accessible to authorized users on your account, regardless of physical location.

It is recommended to enable out-of-region access so that logs and analytics populate in the dashboard. ## Customer traffic metadata flow
