Suggestions on how to tackle this within Umbraco (doc download confirmation)
We have a wiki/knowledge base built using Umbraco. There are certain files/pdfs (documents) that are added (uploaded by management via the back office) where management would like to receive confirmation that the 'user' has downloaded (via links on front end) and/or viewed the file/doc/pdf. The site is internal only, not public, they do not want to force employees to have to log in and this will only be for certain documents, not all documents on the site. I'm just looking at this now and starting to play out in my head as to how I'm going to put this together without forcing the front end user to have to log in first. I'm curious as to how others using Umbraco would tackle this. Not looking for specifics or any how to, just a general overview of how others would tackle this using umbraco. I may be overthinking this.

I would use a HttpHandler to track the downloads
