Boudoir photography client gallery — private by design

Privacy isn't a feature for boudoir delivery — it's the baseline. Every boudoir gallery is sensitive by nature; the delivery method must match. Filolio is built so that only people with both the link and the password can view anything. And because Filolio stores zero photo bytes, there is nothing on our servers to breach or leak — images load directly from your cloud provider's CDN, never touching ours.

How the privacy works

• ✓Gallery links are randomly generated strings with no connection to the client's name, shoot date, or photographer — unguessable by design.
• ✓Password protection is included free — one password per gallery; entering it is the only way in.
• ✓Filolio stores zero photo bytes — images load from your cloud provider's CDN (Google Drive or Dropbox); a breach of Filolio reveals no photos.
• ✓No gallery is ever publicly listed or discoverable — no directory, no search, no "browse galleries" anywhere on the platform.

What clients experience

A clean, discreet gallery: enter the password, view a full masonry grid, download at full resolution. No account required, no app to install, nothing in the interface that reveals which platform was used. The experience begins and ends with the link you send them.

A note on how it works

The folder containing your photos — in Google Drive or Dropbox — must be set to a view-only shared link so Filolio can read the files (in Drive that's “anyone with the link can view”; in Dropbox it's a shared folder link). The gallery link you send your client is completely separate — it is the randomly generated, password-protected one. Your client never sees or interacts with your cloud folder directly.

Common questions

Can someone find my client's gallery by searching online?

No. Filolio has no public index of galleries. The only path to a gallery is the link you send. Search engines cannot discover or list gallery pages.

What if my client accidentally shares the link?

Anyone who opens the link still sees only a password prompt. Without the password, the link reveals nothing.

Are my clients' photos stored on Filolio's servers?

Never. Photos load directly from your cloud provider's servers when a client opens the gallery. Filolio stores only the gallery settings — title, a reference to your Google Drive or Dropbox folder, and a hashed password. There are no photos to leak.
