Why is  "Machine Translated by Google" being added to my (API) translated documents?
I am paying for this service and we need our translated documents as close to the original content as possible.

How do I remove  "Machine Translated by Google" from the translated documents?

Thanks,
John

Hello, 

I understand your concern about the watermark[0] observed on your translated Doc. This is an attribution requirement[1][2] and sadly, it cannot be removed now. 

The Translation API product team is aware about the concern and they are surely looking to make the necessary adjustments but there is no ETA for that. 

I hope this information helps.

Thanks for the explanation. I don't might informing the end users that the document was translated with Google but imprinting the watermark on the doc is a show stopper. I will look for an alternate solution. Thanks again.
