This is just a frontend, DeepL (or any other engine you use) still sees the text that you translate.

That's true but I don't translate anything especially critical, but it's works great when DeepL no longer lets you translate more after getting over their daily limit.

And even though they have my text, they don't know where it really comes from because it comes from a proxy. (Although this makes me thing: Now the proxy maintainer have my text?)

i believe it works as a proxy, not just as a frontend. just like searxng or whoogle. but if not then sad 🥲
