Can I send messages to players in their respective languages (all German-speaking players, all English-speakers, etc.)?

While we don't have specific localization support right now (this is on our backlog, so be sure to let us know if it's important to you, as we prioritize all work based upon what we're hearing our development community needs), we don?t have any restrictions on your messaging, whether in-game or Push Notifications. So if you have data in your game identifying the language of your players, you could use that as part of a simple logic (likely hosted in our Cloud Script) to send messages to players in their specific languages, or as part of Admin tools you create, to send Push Notifications to players.

I would also like some more localisation support. Is the text that is send to reset a password (form the game manager) editable? See screenshot.

Not right now, no. We do have a backlog item to allow for customization of this email, and I've added this as a suggestion in our Feature Requests forum, so that developers can vote this up (and help us to prioritize).

Ah alright, thanks.

Too bad though, our players (Dutch children of 6-13 years) may not be so skilled in English. Hopefully we can change it soon.
