How it works

No. The contribution link is for uploading photographs. Contributors cannot see, browse or access your cloud storage, and the link does not open a gallery. Contributors do not need an account and never pay.

Your originals remain in your own cloud storage. Collecurate does not delete them from that storage. Keep the exportable collection record alongside them: the surrounding information is not guaranteed to remain available forever, and Collecurate cannot recover information it has irretrievably lost.

Collecurate and Roam each have their own account and login. Your accounts and data are kept separate.

An Album is a grouping of photographs and their order. During curation, one photograph can belong to several Albums without making any copies. Finishing produces a readable collection record. Ordered Album folders are optional, and hold copies alongside the originals.

Copies use additional storage and can take time. Review the Album count, photograph count, copy count and estimated extra storage before you confirm. A photograph in three Albums is copied three times. You are responsible for having enough space; Collecurate cannot check it for you. You can leave the page while folders are made. No completion time is promised.

ZIP downloads are available when a collection is small enough for them to work reliably. This depends on collection size and reliable delivery, not how much you pay. Larger collections use organised folders in your own storage alongside the collection record.
