Controversy

In September 2017, NRK reported that documents originated by Norwegian individuals and organizations and translated by Translate.com are openly available online,[12] also specifically reporting on internal documents of Statoil.[13] A couple of days later, YLE reported that it was easily able to find, via Google searches, hundreds of confidential documents originated by Finnish companies, organizations, and individuals that had been translated by Translate.com and made publicly available on the Internet.[14] YLE reported that the license terms of Translate.com grant it the rights to keep documents translated by it, and to make them available online alongside its translation service.
