Data privacy you can trust

Freelance File Flow is 100% self-hosted. All client data, files, and project details stay on your server — not ours. We don’t track your users, store their uploads, or collect any data from your business.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use it without file uploads?

Yes! File uploads are optional — clients can submit just text requests and select services.

Can clients track the status of their request?

Yes, each client receives a private, password-protected page to check status, download files, and respond to quotes.

Is it free?

Yes — the core plugin is and always will be 100% free to use. We’re working on an optional PRO version with advanced features.

Does it work with my theme?

Absolutely. The form is versatilely styled with Bootstrap and works seamlessly with most modern themes out of the box.

Where are files and form data stored?

All client files and form data are stored directly on your own WordPress server. No data leaves your site — and nothing is sent via insecure channels like email. Clients access and download files from a secure, password-protected link.

Do I need to change my privacy policy or legal terms to use this plugin?

In most cases, no. Freelance File Flow is self-hosted and does not send any data to external services, so it fits naturally into existing privacy policies. Since you remain the sole data controller, there's no need to list third-party processors or adjust your legal documents.

Why is this safer than email?

Email is notoriously insecure — attachments can be intercepted, forwarded, or land in the wrong inbox. Freelance File Flow keeps files off email entirely and delivers them securely from your own server. It’s a safer, more professional way to handle sensitive documents.
