Reliable and secure

The Phrase Localization Platform follows best practices in security, stability and performance. This means we comply with the Principles and Security Statements of ISO 27001, PCI DSS, AWS, CCPA and GDPR. Our infrastructure is one of the most resilient and robust available (zero downtime deployments and a 99.9% uptime), and we work hard to ensure it stays that way.

Accessibility at Phrase

At Phrase, we are committed to providing an accessible and inclusive experience for everyone.

Our accessibility efforts include:

  • Integrating accessibility best practices into product design and development.
  • Making accessibility a core part of our QA and release processes.
  • Providing internal support channels and resources for accessibility questions and feedback.
  • Embedding accessibility and inclusion into our hiring and employee experience processes.
  • Fostering a company culture that prioritizes inclusion, equal access, and continuous improvement.

Milestones achieved

We have successfully aligned our core translation environment, the TMS CAT editor, with WCAG accessibility guidelines. These improvements enable full keyboard-only usage, improve compatibility with screen readers, and reduce cognitive load for translators, making the translation environment easier to access and use for a wider range of users.
