MachineTranslation.com is developed by Tomedes, a professional translation company. When a user translates text in standard mode, the text is sent to the AI model providers that produce the translation. A few other companies host the platform, measure site traffic and process payments.
The companies below may handle personal data. Each one receives only what it needs for its task.
When Secure Translation is switched on, text and files are processed by a model running in Tomedes's own AWS environment. They are not sent to any of the AI model providers listed below. The only sub-processor handling Secure Translation content is Amazon Web Services, as the hosting provider.
These providers receive the text a user submits in standard mode and return a translation. They get the source text only, not account details. How each provider logs and stores data is shown on the Trust and security page. The 22 AI models on that page come from the 20 companies below, because Amazon and Google each provide two.
