Obviously yes. There's no data protection in free versions and at least DeepL has a limited free version (limited number of words that you can translate per day).

I pay for Deepl and I’ve been using it as a very rough draft just to speed the typing up a bit.

My translations are all created by a human being... something which might become quite rare in the future.

In the Americas, DeepL Pro is only available in Canada, the United States and Mexico.

The rest of the Americas is Third World territory.

I think it is only a matter of time to be available in other Latin American countries. I've found this recent post:

I use my own paid machine translation engine in addition to DeepL.
I think a lot of people have a wrong idea about MT.
For me, MT doesn't and never has done the job for me.
It just serves as any other translation assistance tool that speeds up my work and which gives me more time to improve my human translation.
