What is "data traffic"?
This of course refers to all traffic created by data transfers -- but usually means the data transfered via your provider's mobile network (i.e. mobile-data), as this is what's nibbeling at your data-plan. This includes background-data as well as explicitly triggered data transfers, such as e.g. downloads.
