# Secure Data Transfer

Datalink has a commitment to data security, and provides secure methods for sending and receiving sensitive data between itself, its vendors and its customers.

If you need to send data securely, use the following approaches:

1. Using our [Service Desk Support Form](https://datalink.freshdesk.com/support/tickets/new), you can upload data securely up to 10 MB in size
2. For larger transfers, Datalink supports SFTP and SCP — contact our service desk to arrange access.
3. If your project has a Data Protection Plan, it may specify additional methods of transfer

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.cw.crisisworks.com/security-and-support/security/secure-data-transfer.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
