See who's opened your shared documents
WeTransfer shows you when your documents have been previewed, so you always know where things stand. For healthcare teams sharing time-sensitive materials, that visibility matters.
Keep count of who views your transfer
When you share documents through WeTransfer, every transfer automatically shows a preview count, so you can see how many times a file has been opened without any setup. Healthcare professionals sending referral documents, intake forms, or clinical reports can enable access control to go further, getting a per-recipient log of who previewed a file and when. Recipients can open and review PDFs and Office documents directly in the browser before downloading, which means you get meaningful engagement data even when no download happens. You can also restrict access to specific email addresses, so sensitive documents only reach the people they are meant for. All transfers are encrypted in transit and at rest, stored in EU data centers, with infrastructure that meets ISO 27001 standards.

FAQs
All your questions answered.
Yes. Every transfer shows a preview count by default, but if you enable access control in tracked or restricted mode, WeTransfer logs each recipient's name and the exact time they opened the document. This is especially useful in healthcare settings where you need a clear record of who reviewed a referral, consent form, or clinical summary.
WeTransfer does not send email notifications for previews, but the per-recipient view log in your transfer is updated in real time, so you can check it whenever you need to. If you also enable download tracking, you will receive a notification when a recipient downloads the file.
Recipients can preview PDFs, Word documents, PowerPoint presentations, Excel files, and several other formats directly in the browser, with no account or software needed. For healthcare teams, this means a recipient can review a discharge summary or referral letter in full before deciding whether to save a copy.
You can restrict access to a transfer by specifying one or more email addresses, so only those recipients can open the files. Combined with password protection, this gives healthcare senders two independent layers of access control for documents containing sensitive information.
WeTransfer encrypts files in transit using TLS and at rest using AES-256, stores data in EU data centers, and holds ISO 27001 certification. The platform is GDPR-compliant, and data processing agreements are available for business plans, which can support compliance requirements relevant to healthcare organizations handling patient-related documents.
