2. PURPOSE OF THE CONTRACT
Translation services consist in the mere and faithful presentation of a text in another language, maintaining the quality and characteristics of the source document.
Corrections to texts and interpretation of meanings that are not essential in order to achieve a high standard translation are classified as creative interventions on
a text, and not consistent with translation services.

3.1. The nature of the work performed and all information supplied to the Supplier by the Client will be classified as highly confidential.
3.2. The Supplier shall not, without the prior consent of the Client, divulge or disclose such information to the public or any third parties, except to the Supplier’s
authorised subcontractors who need to consult such information to perform the required services.
3.3. This provision shall not be applicable in all cases where the Supplier is obliged by law to disclose such information, or to the extent where the same is, or
becomes, a matter of public knowledge, other than by disclosure by the Supplier.
4. SOURCE MATERIAL AND DELIVERED MATERIAL
4.1. All Source Material must be clearly legible and provided to the Supplier in the formats and within the deadlines agreed between the Client and the Supplier.
4.2. On assigning the work, the Client is required to indicate the intended usage of the translation (i.e.: translation for internal use, for marketing purposes etc.);
this is to ensure that the service is performed to the sufficient standard to suit the Client’s requirements. If the Client does not disclose the purpose of the
translation, SB Traduzioni shall perform the translation at its own discretion according to the information available, assessing the characteristics, content, further to
the formatting and editing required.
