If I need to collect e-forms from people with confidential information on them, what's the best/responsible way to do it?

Is there an easy way to use for this?
Should they just email the forms? (But that's not encrypted, right?)

I have a fillable PDF form set up, but it's going to have legal names and bank accounts, etc. I need to keep that private.

Surely there is some standard practice for this kind of thing? 🤔

When you share a folder in Nextcloud, you can choose in the sharing preferences to share it only for uploads. This way people will be able to upload their files via the shared public link (and maybe a password) but not to see what others have uploaded there before.

I didn't know you could set permissions like that. That might be my best option. Thanks!

Yes. Just tested that. It's exactly what I need -- the "File drop" setting on a shared folder.

Thanks again!

Nextcloud has group folders and stuff, but is this the use case for those?

Ideally, there'd be some sort of inbox where they could upload, but not read other people's forms.

Alternatively, email is fine, but I need to figure out the right way to do it so as not to leak their data.

@TerryHancock If you already have a PDF form, then just have a simple HTML5 upload form secured with HTTPS.
