Absolutely! We use Google's official OAuth 2.0 authentication, meaning we never see your password. We only request permission to create and upload filesโwe cannot read, modify, or delete your existing files. You can revoke access anytime from your Google account settings.
File size limits depend on your plan: Free users can transfer files up to 100MB, Pro users up to 2GB, and Premium users up to 5GB per file. There are also monthly transfer limits: 5 for Free, 100 for Pro, and unlimited for Premium users.
Currently, files are saved to your Google Drive's root folder. After the transfer completes, you can easily move them to any folder within Google Drive. We're working on adding folder selection in a future update.
Our system works quickly to prevent this, but if a link expires mid-transfer, you'll receive an error message. Always initiate transfers as soon as you receive the WeTransfer link for best results. Most transfers complete in under 60 seconds.
No, we never permanently store your files. Files stream directly from WeTransfer through our secure servers to your Google Drive. Any temporary data is immediately deleted after the transfer completes or if an error occurs.
