# What permission levels can I give on a Delta Drive share?

Five levels, for everybody on a share or for one person:

- **Read** — open and download; nothing they do can change anything.
- **Comment** — the same, plus leaving comments.
- **Read / Write** — add, rename, move and bin things inside what you shared.
- **Reshare** — everything above, plus passing it on.
- **Owner** — full control of what you shared; only offered once that person has actually opened the share.

Read / Write and above all include commenting. See [per-person permissions](https://storagestudio.us/faq/delta-drive/can-i-give-one-person-different-access-on-a-share).
