Certified translations, file formats, and data security

I have worked as a translator for 16 years, and for quality reasons, I only translate into my native language, German; translations into English or French are carried out by qualified colleagues who are native speakers of those languages. Please send me your documents in formats that are suitable for translation programs, such as .docx, .txt, or .xls, and not in PDF format. Unless you want to receive certified or confirmed translations for courts, authorities, or notaries, such as certificates, marriage documents, driver’s licenses, and testamentary protocols, colleagues also take over. Once I understand your requirements, I will send you a nonbinding quote for the work involved.

Protecting your data is important to me, so original documents and translations are stored only on hard drives that are not connected to the Internet unless the texts are machine-translated, sent, or received. We also have strict data security processes. For example, we use only wired internet connections.
