About Privacy

Please be aware that you may be asked to send me the document(s) to be translated prior to receiving your quote. This is so I can confirm the subject matter and number of Japanese characters in the text, as well as identify any possible issues to clarify with you before starting the translation. (e.g., To check if possibly irrelevant text may be omitted, lowering the cost for you).

​

Rest assured that all of your documents and personal information will be kept confidential, and any personal files will be removed from my computer following completion of the project and payment of invoices. Your files will also be removed in the event that you decide to withdraw your request.
