@ AMM "notaris/zation is disliked by UK notaries"
Maybe 100 years ago, but things have moved on somewhat
I know a highly-qualified English notary public who happily uses this term
The profession is no longer the exclusive domain of a handful of eyeglass chain Scrivener notaries in ivory towers

LexisNexisUK uses the term:
https://www.lexisnexis.co.uk/legal/guidance/notaries-notaris...

So does notary.co.uk:
https://notary.co.uk/services/notarisation/

And Thomson Reuters UK Practical Law:

ASKER I think more context is needed here. Despite your useful link, we don't know what the "acta" is in your actual translation. It would be more helpful if you could post the whole sentence containing your term and tell us what your document is and more of the "story". Thanks!

I read a section of the document presented in the question. It's about impartiality as opposed to a partial tendency in jurisdiction or decision making.
"La imparcialidad en sí está integrada por muchos deberes notariales. En vía de profilaxis como un medio preventivo el legislador trata de preservar al notario de todo vínculo de parcialidad. Cuando el notario actúa debe hacerlo libre de cualquier nexo que le impida aconsejar a las partes o redactar los instrumentos con intereses distintos a los de equidad y seguridad jurídica."
It means that Notaries must be impartial while legislation prevents them from biased decisions. When a Notary gives advice, he or she must do so independently from any other connection or influence which could impede him or her from being fair in the work of treating each individual equally to his or her neighbour. (Impartial advice is without bias or prejudice while a partial approach is influenced by another factor and disallows the adviser or notary from advisiing each individual fairly and equally.)

A limited recording looks like a valid answer. Definitions show it to be the notarization of an act, document, file or a title deed, which involves the process of making a master copy of the act or document for future purposes of protocol.
