Anyone know what's Wuala's policy on hotlinking?

Question

Does Wuala allow me to link to my file from my website?

If so, are there any limits on the bandwidth?

Example:

http://wuala.com/John/Wuala%20Pressmaterial/Logos/EPS/ (directory listing)

Direct link to a file:

http://content.wuala.com/contents/John/Wuala%20Pressmaterial/Logos/EPS/wuala_logo-SIMPLE.eps?dl=1

(not my files, just an example)

Answer 1

I suppose you can. Wikipedia states the following:

share files with unregistered users, through a keyed hyperlink

As long as you use the 'keyed hyperlink', you should be ok.

Users on Wuala's support forum back this up:

Das ist schon ok. Wenn ein File zu oft abgefragt wird, gibt es aber eine Bandbreitenbeschränkung im Webinterface.

Translated: "It's ok. When a file is retreived too many times, there is a bandwith limit in the Webinterface."

Answer 2

Coming directly from the FAQ, yes, you are able to - using a secret link.

Q: Can I share folders with contacts who do not use Wuala?

A: Yes, of course. Simply create a secret link and send it to your contact.
