Viewing who has downloaded or viewed a file/folder?

I'm using the basic Dropbox plan (free). 

 

I copy and paste the link for my clients to access and download the folder of the images i've taken.  Is there a way i can see if they have viewed or downloaded them? I don't always hear back from them in a timely fashion and need to make room for new projects. I did a search here but couldn't find a good response. 

Thank you.

    Hi Stevord, thanks for posting today.

     

    On a Dropbox Basic plan, you wouldn't have any insight into the downloading and viewing of shared links. 

     

    There are two separate features on paid plans, namely viewer info on shared folders, and the send and track feature.

     

    If you have any further queries, feel free to message back.
