In today’s digital world there are many useful ways to use the Data Send UK service.
It has been difficult, for many years, to send large files like high resolution images, audio or video using normal email due to ISP and FTP restrictions. Data Send provides an easy way to get large files where you need them and when you need them. Often, a recipient’s e-mail in box will not allow large file attachments and you may also not want to clog up their email box with larger attachments.
Data Send can store the file for you and provide a simple email with a link to download the file to the recipient. The service is aimed at the non technical user who needs to be able to send large files over the internet both easily and securely. The service is meant not only for large files, it provides a safe and secure way to send any file. Users find the service is also cost effective when compared to other forms of delivery, like a next day courier service.
The service we provide is also very secure as the private and dedicated servers we use are co located in purpose built, state of the art data centers in the UK. These facilities have extensive physical and environmental security measures in place. All files coming to us are transferred over a secure SSL encrypted connection and stored in an encrypted format. They can be downloaded using only the generated links provided. For more security we offer the option of protecting your data and download links with passwords.
Your email address will appear only if you enter it in the “from box”. The notification emails look like simple html emails with a link to download the file. You can send the email to more than one recipient by filling in their email addresses in the “Send To” box. You can also send multiple files at once. We also offer you the option of uploading up to 8 individual files at once with our system.
Data Send gives you the option to track the files that you send, all the files that you send are logged in your own “Sent Files” area. These records are displayed for 7 days then permanently deleted along with the actual files on the server. If you want to save your current records you can use the export function to save a copy of the records to your computer before the auto delete occurs.
With our “Plus & Branded” packages you can log in to your Data Send UK account and view the files you have recently sent. Your own file in box will show the files you have received from other Data Send UK account holders.
All files including the contents of compressed folders are extensively scanned for viruses on upload. If a virus is found the upload is blocked by the system. Our advanced systems automatically update its virus database and check the database for updates 12 times a day.
