### **Important Notes When Using Folders in Collections**

📌 **Collection folders can not have permissions set on them**. You can only set permission on the collection itself, which will automatically set asset permissions on all the assets inside the collection. [See Collection Permissions here](https://support.hivo.co/collections/collection-permissions).\
📌 **Deleting a folder does not delete the assets inside**—they will still exist in the original Collection.\
📌 **Assets can be moved between folders** to optimize content organization.
