Introduction
In accordance with the Federal Trade Commission’s Privacy of Consumer Financial Information rule, we are required to inform you of our policy regarding the privacy of client information.
The security of your personal data is very important to us. However, please note that no method of transmitting data over the Internet, nor any method of electronic storage, can be guaranteed to be completely secure. While we strive to use commercially reasonable measures to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
Types of Nonpublic Personal Information We Collect
We collect nonpublic personal information that you provide directly to us, or that we obtain from third parties with your authorization.
Parties to Whom We Disclose Information
For both current and former clients, we do not disclose any nonpublic personal information obtained in the course of our practice, except as required or permitted by law.
Permitted disclosures may include sharing information with our employees or, in limited cases, with third parties who assist us in providing services to you. In all such instances, we stress and maintain the confidential nature of the information being shared.
Who We Share Your Data With
AccTax Biz may, from time to time, engage third-party service providers to assist in managing or supporting your account. We may share confidential information with these providers while continuing to uphold strict confidentiality and security standards.
We maintain internal policies, procedures, and safeguards designed to protect your personal information. In addition, we secure confidentiality agreements with all service providers and take reasonable precautions to ensure they have appropriate protections in place to prevent unauthorized use or disclosure of your information.
Protecting the Confidentiality and Security of Client Information
We retain records related to the professional services we provide to better serve you and to meet applicable professional and legal standards. To protect your nonpublic personal information, we maintain physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards consistent with our professional obligations.
Cybersecurity (Written Information Security Plan – WISP)
We maintain a Written Information Security Plan (WISP) to outline and implement cybersecurity policies and procedures designed to protect client data and ensure compliance with applicable laws and professional standards.
Electronic Data Communication and Storage
To facilitate our services, we may transmit or store data electronically using secure systems or third-party platforms. This may include remotely hosted applications or secure vendor portals. Confidential information about your company may therefore be transmitted or stored using these methods.
We employ reasonable security measures to maintain data protection and require all third-party vendors to follow similar protocols in compliance with applicable laws and professional standards.

Children’s Privacy
Our services are not directed to children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 13 years of age. If you are a parent or guardian and believe that your child under 13 has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can review and address the situation. If we become aware that we have collected personal information from a child under 13 without verifiable parental consent, we will take reasonable steps to delete that information from our records as soon as practicable.
