Is it safe to send client videos through Dropbox or WeTransfer?

Sending client videos through Dropbox or WeTransfer is generally safe from a technical standpoint, but "anyone with the link" sharing is the weak point: the link can be forwarded to anyone, there is often no password, and with WeTransfer you cannot revoke access once the file is out.

The practical risks for filmmakers are less about hacking and more about control. A wedding film forwarded before the couple has seen it. An unreleased campaign spot that surfaces early because a review link was shared internally. A folder link that stays live for years with no idea who has opened it.

The fix is delivery controls: password protection, an expiry date on review links, downloads disabled while a cut is in draft, and a watermark on anything unfinished.

DLVRD builds these in per gallery, so a client delivery can be locked to a password, expire when the project is done, and notify you when files are downloaded.
