Automatic Translation on Google Chrome
How it Works?
The contents of a page are only sent to Google if you choose to translate them; otherwise, they are never sent to Google to detect the language. If you choose to translate a page, the text of that page is sent to Google's translation service for translation. Your cookies are not sent along with that request and, if the page you are on is encrypted with SSL, Google Chrome also sends the translation request over SSL. This communication with Google's translation service is covered by the Google privacy policy.
Google's translation service uses machine translation. Keep in mind that machine translation currently isn't as accurate as actual human translation. So Google Chrome's translation feature can probably help you understand the gist of a page and individual words. But it probably can't help you with poetry or pages that contain complex grammar or technical vocabulary.
