The English source texts almost never specify gender, so we can assess gender neutrality in translation.
Three kinds of references can require gender marking. Generic role references such as "your manager" or "the expert", generic second-person address such as "you" and "your", and generic third-person references to people. All four texts carry them. By density, from the most to the least: the editorial article, the privacy notice, the education guide, the travel alert. The travel alert contains instructions without an explicit subject and few references to people.
We assess gender neutrality only in segments that refer to a person, ~115 of the 177. On a segment with no person in it there is nothing to make neutral, so those segments are left out of the denominator for every solution.
