About Phrase

Enterprise Localization at Scale

Phrase (formerly Memsource) is the tool of choice for enterprise teams managing translation across dozens of languages. It combines a translation management system with CAT tools (computer-assisted translation), AI-powered machine translation, and quality assurance checks.

The platform orchestrates complex workflows between in-house teams, external translation agencies, and machine translation engines. QA checks catch inconsistencies, terminology violations, and formatting issues before translations ship.

Phrase GDPR & data protection: common questions

Is Phrase GDPR compliant?

Yes. On the evidence we checked, Phrase meets the requirements European businesses usually need. Phrase is a European company headquartered in Germany, data is hosted within the European Union. Every claim on this page links to the vendor's own documentation.

Where does Phrase store data?

Phrase hosts data within the European Union.

Does Phrase offer a Data Processing Agreement (DPA)?

We could not locate a published DPA for Phrase. That does not mean one is unavailable. Many vendors provide it on request or inside the account area rather than publishing it. Ask before you sign.

What a DPA has to cover →

Is Phrase a European company?

Yes. Phrase is headquartered in Germany and, as far as we can establish, European-owned.

Who are Phrase's sub-processors?

Phrase publishes its sub-processor list at https://phrase.com/subprocessor-overview/. Worth reading: a vendor hosting in the EU can still route data through non-EU sub-processors, which is where residency claims usually come apart.
