TransOver

Translate word (or text selection) from any language to the language of your choice by single click or hover over.

Also available:
  - text-to-speech
  - reverse translate: from your own language to the language of your choice
  - type and translate in a popup
  - copy translation to clipboard

SECURITY EXPLAINED

"Your data on all websites":
TransOver should be able to read any word on a page - "Your data ..." - in order to translate it. On any website you want it working - "... on all websites".
