Client Access to files

Would like to know how long to my clients have to access their photos. I am a photographer who sends my clients photos to  them through dropbox. 

 

Do you they need to download the photos so that they will always have access or will the link that I share with the client they will always have access to this.

 

Thanks

    The link is only valid as long as you keep the files and don't remove the link. If you remove the link or delete the files, your clients will lose access. If you're using a link to send files and your clients intend to keep those files forever, they should download/save their own copy of the files.
