Privacy
Straightforward privacy.
Your data deserves special protection. That is why Formhelfer uses your personal information only to create your application. It is not stored permanently and is processed only where it is genuinely necessary.
The same applies when AI is used: as little data as possible. Only individual free-text entries in other languages are sent to an AI service for translation when necessary. Other personal information is not required for this purpose.
