Sketchfab is a service intended to provide artists with a better workflow in relation to asset sharing with clients or simply as a portfolio website. If you want to make your 3D objects or scenes available only to certain people, this is part of the paid Pro version. This comes with a monthly price of of EUR 9 and, in addition, a maximum storage space of 20GB. The maximum size of individual data is 200 MB. According to the Sketchfab team, the biggest difference between this portal and others is that the objects can be examined interactively with the help of WebGL.
