Three clear access modes
Public is link-based. Tracked verifies an email. Restricted accepts only addresses on the allowlist.
When the handoff matters, “someone clicked” is not enough.
Choose a public link, verify every visitor by email, or limit access to a recipient allowlist.

What changes
Public is link-based. Tracked verifies an email. Restricted accepts only addresses on the allowlist.
Add a hashed transfer password to any access mode without changing the recipient link.
Remove a verified grant or recipient while keeping the rest of the transfer active.
Owner visits and automated previews are marked separately from recipient conversion.
Trust detail
Recipient pages are noindex, verification codes expire, and raw email addresses are not copied into the activity event metadata.
After you send
A transfer that has been opened looks different from one that has not. That difference is what makes the follow-up email unnecessary.
Quick answers

Yes. Download alerts tell you when a recipient takes the files.
No. Expiry, password and access apply to the whole transfer, so one delivery has one set of rules.
Yes. Safety processing completes before a transfer becomes downloadable.
