Your Data, Your Control
Supervertaler runs on YOUR computer. There is no Supervertaler company server. Your documents, translation memory, and glossaries never leave your machine unless you choose to send them to an AI provider for translation.
π
What Happens When You Use AI Translation
Reality: When you click "Translate," the text you select is sent to the LLM provider's servers (OpenAI, Anthropic, or Google). This is how AI translation worksβthe AI models run on their infrastructure. Supervertaler does NOT process translations locally.
Important: This means your document content temporarily reaches these providers' systems.
β
Data Protection: Default Terms
- OpenAI: Does NOT use API data for model training (by default). Enterprise plans available with zero-retention guarantees.
- Anthropic (Claude): Does NOT use API data for training. Has explicit no-retention policy.
- Google Generative AI: Similar policies with SOC 2 compliance available.
All providers offer data processing agreements (DPAs) and enterprise plans with enhanced privacy.
π
For Confidential / NDA Work
Recommended approach:
- Use enterprise/business plans from your chosen LLM provider
- Ensure Data Processing Agreement (DPA) is in place
- Confirm zero data retention guarantee
- Verify SOC 2 Type II compliance
- Check GDPR/regional compliance with your provider
Most enterprise plans explicitly prohibit data use beyond your specific requests.
πΎ
What You Control
- β Choose which AI provider(s) to use
- β Your API keys (never stored by Supervertaler)
- β What gets sent: Only text you explicitly translate
- β Which documents to work with locally vs. via AI
- β Translation memory stays 100% local
- β Glossaries and custom instructions stay local

Open Source = Transparent
Supervertaler is fully open source on GitHub. You can audit the code yourself to verify exactly how your data is handled. No hidden data collection, no telemetry, no analyticsβjust the code you can review.
