1. What does Hermes Translator do?
Hermes Translator is an AI-powered translation and interpreting assistant. It helps users translate text, clarify terminology, improve readability, and support communication across languages in everyday, business, and specialist contexts.
2. Is this a replacement for a human translator or interpreter?
No. AI is a support tool, not a substitute for professional judgment. For important, sensitive, legal, medical, or high-stakes content, a qualified translator or interpreter should review the result before it is used.
3. How accurate are the translations?
The system uses multiple AI engines, subject-aware refinement, and quality checks to improve accuracy and consistency. Even so, errors, omissions, or ambiguities can still happen, especially with complex, poorly written, or highly specialized source texts.
4. Can I use this app for emergency situations?
No. The app is not intended for emergencies or life-threatening situations. In those cases, use local emergency services and, when needed, a certified human interpreter.
5. Does the app store my texts?
Depending on the configuration and the feature used, texts may be processed temporarily to provide the service and may be retained only as long as needed for delivery, security, or legal obligations.
6. Is personal data protected?
Yes. We apply data minimization, encryption, and access control, and we follow applicable privacy principles when processing personal data. If the content includes health-related information, extra care is required because health data is sensitive under GDPR.
7. Can I use real personal identifiers?
Where possible, remove names, IDs, contact details, and unnecessary private or sensitive information before uploading or pasting text. Always follow your organization's privacy rules and the legal requirements that apply to your use case.
8. Who is responsible for the final translation?
The user remains responsible for the final result and for checking that it is complete, appropriate, and legally compliant for the intended purpose. The app can assist, but it does not replace professional review.
