GDPR-compliant file sharing for teams

Sensitive documents, design files, and data-heavy assets all need a transfer path you can trust. WeTransfer encrypts every file from upload to download, stores data on EU servers, and gives both individual senders and workspace admins the controls to decide exactly who can access what.

A secure space for your team

If your work involves personal data, client files, or confidential business documents, the compliance credentials of your file-sharing tool matter as much as its speed. WeTransfer is GDPR-compliant, ISO 27001 certified, and based in the EU, with all files stored on AWS servers in Ireland and Data Processing Agreements available on business plans. Every transfer is encrypted in transit using TLS and at rest using AES-256, so files are protected whether they are sitting on a server or moving to a recipient. Senders can lock any transfer behind a password, restrict access to a named list of verified email addresses, and generate a timestamped download record to confirm exactly who opened what. Teams that need deeper governance can add a shared workspace with centralized billing and admin oversight, and larger organizations can layer in SSO, SCIM provisioning, custom transfer rules, usage logs, and advanced access management at the Enterprise level.

FAQs

All your questions answered.


Yes. WeTransfer is a Dutch company, fully GDPR-compliant, and stores files on AWS servers in Ireland for users uploading from European IP addresses. All files are encrypted at rest with AES-256 and in transit with TLS, and the service holds ISO 27001 certification. Data Processing Agreements are available for business plan customers to satisfy their own compliance obligations.


Yes. When creating a transfer you can enable Restricted access, which limits downloads to a list of verified email addresses you specify. Anyone who opens the link and cannot match a verified address is blocked, and you receive a detailed notification each time an authorized recipient downloads. You can edit the access list after sending from your Transfers panel.


No. Your files belong to you and are never sold to third parties, never shared with advertisers, and never used to train AI models. WeTransfer's automated systems scan uploads for malware and illegal content, but staff do not view file contents unless legally compelled by a valid court order. Files are removed from WeTransfer's servers as soon as a transfer expires or is deleted.


A shared workspace gives every team member their own linked account while letting admins view and manage all transfers from a central panel. Shared storage, centralized billing, and shared branding keep things consistent, and each sender still has access to password protection, restricted access, and download tracking on their individual transfers. Organizations with stricter requirements can add SSO, SCIM provisioning, custom transfer rules, and usage logs through an Enterprise plan.


WeTransfer's DPA is available to download directly at wetransfer.com/documents/WeTransfer_Data_Processing_Agreement.pdf and is legally binding as provided. It applies when you are using WeTransfer for business purposes and your transfers include personal data, positioning you as the data controller and WeTransfer as the data processor. DPAs are supported on paid business plans.
