NEW YORK, May 14, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- DeepL, a global leader in Language AI, today announced its compliance with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), marking a pivotal advancement in its commitment to data privacy and security. This milestone further positions DeepL as a trusted partner for US healthcare providers, research institutions and other organizations that handle Protected Health Information (PHI).
