Explanation:
I think this is the actual equivalent of keine Angaben. As discussed above, Other is often used, but is not what this says. And it is also not "None" - but "No answer".

other


Explanation:
I would use "other" since this encompasses any *other*, unqualified category (could also be used as "other, please specify" if they want the visitor to describe the category)

but the latter does not semm to be the case based on \"keine Angaben\"

could also be translated as \"no information/specification (given)\"
