Legal and Site Policies

The three documents that govern this website and the information you send through it, each with a plain summary of what it actually says.

The short version of each

Privacy policy

  • What the contact form collects and where it goes: your message is emailed to the firm and stored in the site's own log so a delivery failure never loses an enquiry.
  • The outside services involved and what each one sees — Vercel for hosting and server logs, Mailgun for delivering the form email, Google Tag Manager as the tag container, and the client portal. Google spam protection is listed too, with a note that the widget is not currently enabled, because a policy that discloses a data flow that is not happening is as wrong as one that hides a flow that is.
  • What is collected automatically, what cookies are set, how long anything is kept, and what you can ask us to do with it.
  • It covers this website only. Information you give us as a client, under an engagement, is governed by the engagement and by the confidentiality rules that apply to CPAs — not by a website policy.

Terms of use

  • Everything published here is general information about how tax rules work. It is not advice about your situation and it is not a substitute for someone reading your documents.
  • Reading the site, sending the form, or getting a reply does not make us your CPA. That happens when an engagement letter naming the work, the year and the parties is signed by both sides.
  • Tax law changes, and a page that was right when it was written can stop being right without moving. Where a figure is one Congress indexes each year, we say which tax year it belongs to.
  • The rest is the ordinary furniture: accuracy, outbound links, trademarks, acceptable use, limitation of liability and governing law.

Accessibility statement

  • The standard this site targets, and what was actually tested against it rather than what was assumed.
  • The known limitations, stated plainly. A statement that claims no limitations is usually a statement nobody tested.
  • How to report a problem, and what happens when you do.

What these documents do not cover

None of these pages is the engagement letter. Nothing on this website — these policies included — creates a client relationship or constitutes tax advice. That relationship starts with a signed engagement letter that names the work, the year and the parties; until it exists, we are not your CPA and you should not rely on anything here as if we were.

If you need to send us something sensitive, do not use the contact form. Use the client portal, which is built for document exchange, or ask us and we will send you a secure upload link. The form is fine for saying hello and describing a situation in general terms.

Questions about any of this go to the same place as everything else — the contact page, or the phone number in the footer.
