Secure image sharing for construction teams

Construction sites generate a constant flow of photos, drawings, and inspection images that need to reach the right people without ending up in the wrong hands. WeTransfer keeps every image encrypted from the moment it leaves your device to the moment it arrives, and gives your team precise control over who can actually open each transfer.

A secure space for your team

Construction teams share site photos, progress documentation, and inspection imagery across contractors, project managers, and clients, often under tight deadlines and with real accountability requirements. WeTransfer protects every image transfer with TLS encryption in transit and AES-256 encryption at rest, stored on EU-based servers with ISO 27001 certification and full GDPR compliance. You can lock any transfer behind a password, restrict downloads to a verified list of specific email addresses, and enable download tracking so you always know exactly who accessed which images and when. Recipients can preview images directly in the browser before downloading, leave comments on individual files, and mark favorites, making it straightforward for site teams and clients to review progress photos without pulling everything to a local drive. Organizations that need centralized oversight can bring the entire project team into a shared workspace with unified billing and admin controls, with options for SSO, custom transfer rules, and usage logs at the Enterprise level for firms with more demanding governance requirements.

FAQs

All your questions answered.


Yes. Recipients can view images directly in their browser before deciding what to download, which is useful when a client or site manager only needs to check specific progress photos from a large batch. They can also leave comments on individual images and mark favorites, so feedback on construction documentation stays organized alongside the files themselves.


When creating a transfer, you can restrict access to a named list of verified email addresses, so only the contractors, architects, or clients you specify can open it. Anyone else who gets hold of the link will be blocked after their email address fails to match the access list. You can also add a password as an additional layer, which you share separately outside WeTransfer.


No. WeTransfer sends files in their original quality with no re-encoding, no resolution loss, and no compression applied to the content. Your site photos, 4K drone footage, and high-resolution inspection images arrive exactly as they left your device, which matters when images are used for documentation, dispute records, or handover reports.


Yes. You can enable download tracking on any transfer, which logs each download with the recipient's details and a timestamp. For construction projects where accountability matters, such as sign-off on completed stages or confirmation that a subcontractor received updated plans or site photos, this gives you a clear, dated record of who accessed what and when.


A shared workspace lets your whole organization send and receive transfers under one plan, with centralized billing and admin visibility across all activity. Admins can see and manage transfers sent by every team member, while individuals only see their own, keeping project files organized across sites. Larger firms can add SSO, custom transfer rules, usage logs, and advanced access management through an Enterprise plan, giving IT and project leads the controls they need across the full organization.
