The only people with access to client documents are translators, proofreaders and our internal staff. Each of these individuals has signed a confidentiality agreement with Flexo Translations.
How do we quote for a project?
To prepare our quotes, we consider the subject of the text, its length, the word count, and the required delivery deadline. We also use CAT tools that allow us to identify word repetitions, and thus adjust the final price of the project.
Our quotations are sent without any obligation, so you can contact us and we will assist you with the whole process.
What is the purpose of a glossary or a translation memory?
Primarily, they serve to reduce costs in the final price. If similar content is translated, a glossary or a translation memory can be generated. These resources not only speed up delivery times but also help to reduce costs.
What is the method of payment?
Projects are usually paid by bank transfer once the budget is approved. Contact us and we will help you with any doubts you may have regarding payment.
What is the difference between translation and interpretation?
Translations work with texts (literary, commercial, legal, financial, etc.) and interpretation works with oral language. In interpreting, professionals interpret consecutively or simultaneously at conferences, courts and events or remotely to overcome language barriers.
What are our working hours?
We are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
