Subject: Quick Note on File Sharing & Project Security

Hey [Client Name],

Wanted to give you a heads up on how I handle files and communication for client work.

I don’t use Google Drive, Dropbox, or other mainstream cloud tools for project delivery. That’s intentional. Those platforms scan files, log access, and retain data often in ways that violate NDAs or expose sensitive info without anyone realizing it.

Instead, I use a local first workflow:

Files are stored offline or in encrypted vaults

I encrypt everything before sending (zip with passphrase, or via secure tools like Wormhole)

Links expire automatically and are never stored on third-party servers

This protects both of us. It ensures your content stays confidential and can’t be leaked through tool defaults or metadata traps.

You won’t need any special software, just a way to unzip a file and the passphrase I’ll send separately.

If you ever prefer a different method, I’m open to it. But I wanted to be transparent about why I run things this way: to keep your materials private and your project safe.

Let me know if you have any questions. Always happy to walk you through it.
