Privacy Policy

Last Updated: June 1, 2026

Welcome to Tax QA Tool. We value your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal data. This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, and safeguard your information when you use our platform.

1. Information We Collect

We collect information to provide a better, secure experience for our users:

• Account Data: When you register, we collect identifiers such as your email address and securely hashed credentials.
• User-Submitted Content: Document snippets or queries you upload to the conversational agent interface to generate analytical responses.
• Usage Logs: Basic technical diagnostics, such as interaction timestamps and system event metrics, to monitor application health.

2. How We Use Your Information

We process your information for the following specific purposes:

• To manage your account configuration and provide secure access control.
• To process text and document inputs through external artificial intelligence models (such as secure APIs) to deliver accurate analytical feedback.
• To continuously optimize platform architecture and fix runtime system exceptions.

3. Third-Party Data Processing & Monetization

We partner with third-party service providers to facilitate platform infrastructure and generate revenue:

• AI Core Infrastructure: Selected text contextual parameters are transmitted securely via API parameters to third-party endpoints (e.g., OpenAI) for real-time natural language query resolution. Your content is never sold or used for public baseline training.
• Advertising Services: We use Google AdSense to display advertisements. Google uses cookies (such as the DART cookie) to serve ads based on user visits to this site and other sites on the internet. You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings.

4. Data Storage and Security

Your security is our absolute priority. User account metadata is managed via a securely configured local SQLite architecture utilizing modern structural encryption (bcryptjs) for credentials. We implement standard encryption methods to safeguard communication layers between your browser and our backend infrastructure.

5. Your Rights and Contact Details

Depending on your geographic jurisdiction (such as POPIA compliance criteria), you have the right to request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal account records. For any security or privacy queries, please reach out to us via our support channel.
