Privacy:

- No search history is stored locally or remotely by this app (last search term is cached in memory only) but it may or may not be possible that your search is tracked by the selected translation provider

- No client-side JavaScript is executed

- HTTPS communication between app and translation providers

Please be extra cautious to not share sensitive data (passwords etc.) with translation providers by accident! If you're using the floating button don't trigger a translation if sensitive data is located in the system clipboard.

Tips and Tricks:

- If an app has implemented a custom context menu see if the floating button works for you or if the app is able to share text
