Translation service agreements and NDAs

Translation services contract, NDA and copyright licence — signed before work begins.

A translator works with sensitive and confidential client documents while also creating a work in which they hold copyright. A professional contract covers confidentiality, deadlines, remuneration and rights transfer — and zipzipdoc generates it in a minute.

How it works in practice

A client sends a request to translate a sensitive document. The translator sends them an NDA and translation services agreement via zipzipdoc. The client signs online and the translator can safely begin work — confident that remuneration and terms are clearly agreed.
