Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 2026

Localyn (“Localyn,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) provides localization, translation, AI data annotation, and vendor management services through localyn.in (the “Site”) and related services (collectively, the “Services”). This Privacy Policy explains what personal data we collect, why we collect it, how we use and protect it, and the choices and rights available to you.

1. Who this policy covers

  • Visitors browsing localyn.in
  • Clients and prospective clients who submit inquiries, request quotes, or engage our services
  • Linguists, vendors, and freelance partners who work with or apply to work with Localyn
  • Job applicants applying for roles at Localyn

2. Information we collect

Information you give us directly: name, email, phone, company, job title, project details, files you upload for translation or annotation, payment and billing information, and (for linguists) resumes and qualifications.

Information collected automatically: IP address, browser and device information, general location, pages visited, and cookies (see Section 8).

Information from third parties: publicly available professional information (e.g. LinkedIn) when evaluating vendor or linguist applications.

3. How we use your information

  • Respond to inquiries and prepare quotes
  • Deliver, manage, and improve our localization, translation, and data annotation services
  • Communicate with you about your project or engagement
  • Process payments and maintain financial records
  • Vet, onboard, and manage our linguist and vendor network
  • Comply with legal, tax, and regulatory obligations

We do not sell your personal data to third parties.

4. How we use client content

Content you submit for translation, localization, or data annotation is used solely to deliver the requested service, unless you agree otherwise in writing. We do not use client-submitted content to train third-party public AI/ML models without your explicit written consent. Content is accessible only to the linguists, project managers, and systems directly involved in delivering your project.

5. Legal basis for processing (EU/UK)

Where GDPR applies, we process personal data on the following legal bases: performance of a contract, your consent, our legitimate business interests, and compliance with legal obligations.

6. Who we share information with

  • Linguists and vendors engaged to deliver your project, bound by confidentiality
  • Service providers who support our operations (cloud storage, translation management, email/CRM, payments)
  • Professional advisors (legal, accounting) where necessary
  • Authorities, where required by law or valid legal process

7. International data transfers

Because we work with linguists and clients across multiple countries, personal data may be transferred to and processed in countries other than your own. Where required, we apply appropriate safeguards (such as standard contractual clauses) for such transfers.

8. Cookies and tracking

Our Site uses cookies and similar technologies to keep the Site functioning, understand how visitors use it, and improve user experience. You can control cookies through your browser settings.

9. Data retention

We retain personal data only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Policy, including to meet legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. Project files are retained for a limited period after project completion unless you request earlier deletion.

10. Your rights

Depending on your location, you may have the right to access, correct, delete, or port your personal data, or to object to certain processing. To exercise any of these rights, contact us at connect@localyn.in.

11. Data security

We implement technical and organizational measures designed to protect personal data. Full detail is available on our Data Security page.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date reflects the most recent revision.
