ToS / Privacy Policy translation
We translate your legal documents — the Terms of Service (offer) and Privacy Policy — into the needed language carefully and preserving the meaning. So that foreign users understand the terms, rather than agreeing to what they do not read. Honestly upfront and plainly: this is a TRANSLATION, NOT legal drafting, not consultation and not a compliance guarantee. Laws differ between countries — the translated document must be reviewed and adapted by a LAWYER for the needed jurisdiction, otherwise it may be legally incomplete or invalid.
ToS / Privacy Policy translation — overview
ToS/Privacy Policy translation is a careful human translation of your legal texts into the needed language, preserving the precision of wording and unified terminology. Honestly about the main boundary, this is critical and always stated: this is a TRANSLATION, NOT a legal service. We do NOT draft documents from scratch, do NOT advise on law and do NOT guarantee the document complies with the target country's law. The reason is simple: laws differ between jurisdictions. A literally translated Russian policy may not account for GDPR (EU) or local legislation requirements — that is, be legally incomplete or invalid in that country, even if the translation is perfect. So the translated document MUST be reviewed and, if needed, adapted by a lawyer practicing in the needed jurisdiction. Honestly about our role: we provide an accurate, well-written translation (or AI translation + mandatory human proofreading — but for legal texts a full human is more honest), preserve meaning and terms, and plainly state that legal correctness is confirmed by a lawyer. Honestly about the 'just translate and publish' risk: it is dangerous — you may think you are protected by a document that does not work in that country. Honestly about the effect: clear terms increase trust, but it is not legal protection by itself. Honestly about access: source documents are needed. An important boundary: this is translation of legal documents; the cookie banner (consent technical) is 793; the legal content/compliance itself is a lawyer's. Picture this: instead of 'a foreigner agrees to terms they do not understand (or which do not work in their country)' — an accurate translation + an honest note that a lawyer finally reviews it. The base price starts from 12,000 ₽ (depends on the volume of documents).
Problems we solve

FAQ
After translation, do my documents comply with another country's law?
No, and it is critical to understand this honestly. This is a translation, not legal drafting. Laws differ: a literally translated document may not account for GDPR or local rules and be legally incomplete or invalid, even with a perfect translation. The translated document must be reviewed and adapted by a lawyer in the needed jurisdiction — we warn about this plainly.
Can you also draft and adapt the documents for the country?
No, that is a lawyer's work, not ours. We do an accurate translation and mark places especially sensitive to local law, but the legal content, compliance and jurisdiction adaptation are confirmed by a lawyer practicing there. Honestly: we do not pass off a translation as a legal guarantee.
Can we just translate and publish?
Technically yes, but it is risky: you may consider yourself protected by a document that does not work in that country. It is more honest — a translation plus a review by a lawyer of the needed jurisdiction. We provide a quality basis, while a lawyer confirms the legal correctness; that way you are really protected, not on paper.
