GOOD TO KNOW
Safety and privacy
Translations can change meaning
A browser convenience tool can translate the wrong selection or page context; compare names, links and surrounding sentences.
Protect private material
Browser selections and synced phrasebooks can expose personal or work content; minimise permissions and avoid confidential pages.
Keep human control
Check names, numbers, instructions and nuance against the original before relying on the result.
