Download	Notifies when a file is downloaded from the shared folder	When the owner or contact wants to make sure the file they shared has been seen by the person they shared it with e.g. a time-sensitive project with a deadline or a folder that is shared with a large number of people and the owner wants to make sure each person has downloaded the file
