Problem type: Something else
Description: Wrong translation from English to German
Steps to Reproduce:
On the English website a sentence reads like this: "Concealing your true IP address. This protects your identity and obscures your location." Now, on the German website this is translated as: "Es verbirgt Ihre IP-Adresse. So wird deine Identität geschützt und dein Standort unkenntlich gemacht." The term "Ihre" (in English "your") is formal, but as the sentence continues it switches to the informal "deine" (in English "your"). This is an incorrent translation from English to German. Instead, the whole German sentence should be: "Es verbirgt deine IP-Adresse. So wird deine Identität geschützt und dein Standort unkenntlich gemacht."
