Translation tools available at the university:

• DeepL-Pro Advanced for teams
  A limited number of "DeepL-Pro Advanced for Teams" licenses are available free of charge for university employees (Administration, Faculties and Institutions). These licenses were procured specifically for working with confidential documents such as contracts, personnel files, certificates, etc. It is possible to purchase additional licenses via the ITS. Although the free version of DeepL offers the same translation quality, it is limited in the amount of text and does not offer the same high level of confidentiality protection as the paid license. Further information can be found at DeepL.
