Translate your website to expand abroad: the importance of legal notices

If you have a website, whether for the sale of various products, for a service or otherwise, your website contains legal notices. Therefore, if you wish to expand internationally, do you need to resort to translation?

The use of legal notices

Starting from the beginning: legal notices, we have all heard of them but what exactly are they? The legal notices page is a document which must be on your website regardless of your sector, giving information about you and your website. Therefore, it’s an obligatory page which includes a large amount of data such as all your contact information. This includes for example your first name and surname, email address, phone number, address and the legal name of your company.

If you don’t have it on your website, it is essential that you add it because it allows you to provide all the information which could be necessary in case of problems.

You already have it but you don’t know if you need to have it translated? It’s simple: if you want to expand your company abroad and reach a foreign audience, translating your legal notices is an essential step.

Transparency between your clients and you

Legal notices are obligatory, but they are also a sign of transparency and show visitors to your website that they can trust you. Therefore, if a reader abroad can have access to these legal notices and clearly understand them, they will be more likely to trust you. A company which does not appear trustworthy will not be able to develop their clientele long term. This means that even if you don’t immediately think of the translation of legal notices, when you wish to translate your website, it will allow you to establish a strong trust between you and the user.

Specialised translation

Just like the translation of general sales conditions, the legal notice page is a document containing specific legal characterisitics. This isn’t just referring to vocabulary but also to structures, layout and presentation rules according to the country. Therefore, it is essential that a professional translator, expert in the legal field and with experience in technical translation, translates your website.
