Confidentiality

Data security is an important topic these days, especially since so much information is being transmitted over the Internet. Naturally, both your personal data and contents are treated as absolutely confidential, even more so since I am also publicly appointed and sworn-in. I also have all the necessary secure connections and anti-virus software, in order to ensure the safety of your data.

Please see also No. 6 "Professional Confidentiality" in the General Terms and Conditions for Translators and No. 13 "Professional Confidentiality" in the General Terms and Conditions for Interpreters, as well as the Professional Code of Conduct of the BDÜ (in German).
