Tell HN: DeepL Moving Data to AWS
Since our goal is to provide you with the best translations available, we are constantly working to improve our products and offer you new features. We sometimes need to update our Terms of Service to reflect these changes. That is exactly what we are doing now!
* On May 20, 2026, we will update the Terms of Service to reflect, among other things, the fact that DeepL no longer processes data exclusively on its own servers. Amazon Web Services (AWS) is being added to DeepL’s list of processors. The addition of AWS improves the reliability, scalability, and technical infrastructure of our services, enabling us to process data on an international scale.
What does this mean for you?
You will need to accept the new Terms of Service to continue using DeepL. You naturally have the right to object. To do so, you must write to support@deepl.com by May 19, 2026, at the latest. If we do not hear from you by then, we will assume that you accept the new Terms of Service. You can view the new Terms of Service in full here.
What happens if you reject these changes?
If you reject these changes, you will be able to use your subscription until the end of your current billing period. For example, if your billing period ends two weeks after May 19, 2026, you will be able to continue using your subscription for those two weeks. If your annual subscription ends after December 31, 2026, we will terminate it no later than December 31, 2026. We will notify you if we decide to terminate it earlier.
* Below is an overview of the main changes to the Terms of Service.
