lloydsolutions Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 Any necessary exchange of personal information required to continue a service may be exchanged within the order page.This is from the Terms of Service which you will find at the bottom of the Fiverr main page.

hanshuber16 Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 Hi,As long as you don’t use the e-mail ID to contact the client outside of Fiverr, you are good.But, if it is absolutely required for you to contact the client (outside of Fiverr) in order to complete the job, contact CS and get their due permission BEFORE contacting the client outside of Fiverr.

You’re not actually going to use the email address to contact the buyer outside Fiverr, you just it need to login to their WP.As @lloydsolutions said it’s mentioned in the ToS as being allowed.I often need website details, phone numbers etc - never been a problem, so long as it’s part of the order details.

Does anyone use dropbox? Is it ok?As I often receive many big files, photos to edit and this can be done through dropbox or wetransfer. Have not had any problems, but just asking for any case Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could ask CS if it’s alright for buyers to send dropbox links just to be on the safe side and cover yourself? It’s unlikely that buyers will read the allowed URL section of the help centre, so wouldn’t know that dropbox links aren’t allowed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
