contract limiting the use and disclosure of your information. We may share your information to support
the products and services you request or provide you information on products and services that may
benefit you.

Our Business Partners.

We work closely with a variety of business partners that are not United Tax Pros companies (e.g., our
bank partners that offer the Refund advance product and Pre paid card)

We may offer products jointly with our business partners. We may share information that is related to such transactions with that business partner. Pursuant to our vendor
management program, we require all business partners to have written contracts with us
that require them to safeguard your information and prohibit them from selling, retaining, using, or disclosing your personal information for any purpose other than for the specific purpose of performing
the contract.

  information to service providers who perform
  business functions on our behalf, such as data

  notice, we will notify you. The notification procedure
  will be the same as the procedure we use to notify
  you of a change to this privacy notice as described

  We may disclose your information when we have a good faith belief
  that such disclosure is required or permitted by law
  pursuant to a legal request. This may occur in
  connection with a court order, legal process, or
  other judicial, administrative, or investigative
  proceeding that produces a request for information
  from us. In certain situations, we may be required to

  safety, the rights and safety of others, or our rights
  and safety. We may disclose your information to
  proper federal, state, or local officials in order to,
  and only to the extent necessary, inform the official

We protect information submitted to us, both during transmission and once we receive it. Nevertheless, no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure. Therefore, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. We maintain administrative, technical, and physical safeguards that comply with applicable law and federal standards and that are designed to restrict access to your information. These safeguards include programs and specifications for physical security and records retention and disposal; computer and communication security measures reflected in system
design, password protection, and data management practices; and other measures to restrict access to the data we hold in physical and electronic forms. If we collect sensitive information (such as your social security number), we will encrypt the transmission of that information using secure transport layer security (TLS). If we share your information with our service providers, we require all service providers to have written contracts with us that require them to safeguard your information and prohibit them from selling, retaining, using or disclosing your information for any purpose other than for the specific
purpose of performing the contract. We may notify you by email, mail, or telephone in the event of a data security incident, and where permitted by law.

In accordance with applicable laws, we keep your information for as long as needed to serve you, we
may retain or use your information as necessary to comply with our policies, legal obligations, resolve
disputes, and enforce our agreements. The IRS requires us to retain filed tax returns for a period of at
least seven years.

Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act

United Tax Pros subject to the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA).

This is being furnished to you as required by the Gramm-Leach-Bliley act of 1999,
which addresses in part the protection of individuals’ privacy. This is the annual notice
required by law. United Tax Pros treats any information concerning our clients and
former clients with strict confidentiality. Consistent with that policy, we restrict
access to nonpublic personal information concerning you to staff members who must
have it in order to provide you the products and services for which you have retained
us. We do not disclose any personal or confidential information to anyone else
without your express permission to do so, except as permitted or required by law, or
expressed in our privacy notice. In addition, we maintain physical, electronic, and
procedural safeguards that comply with federal regulations to guard your nonpublic
personal information. We may disclose any of your nonpublic personal information
that we collect about our customers, former customers to our affiliates or to non-
affiliated third parties as permitted by law.

• California Sensitive Information Disclosure. Some of the personal information
  we collect is considered “sensitive personal information” under California law. We
  collect the following categories of sensitive personal information (as defined
  under California law): Social security, driver’s license, state identification card, or
  passport number; and account log-in, financial account, debit card, or credit card
  number in combination with any required security or access code, password, or
  credentials allowing access to an account. This information is collected in order
  to process transactions, comply with laws, manage our business, or provide you
  with products and services. Note that we do not use such information for any
  purposes that are not identified within the California Privacy Rights Act Section
  1798.121. We do not “sell” or “share” sensitive personal information for purposes
  of cross-context behavioral advertising.
• Your Privacy Rights. If you are a California resident, you may have the
  following rights over your information:
• For the period covering the 12 months preceding your request, you may
  request that we disclose to you the categories and specific pieces of
  information collected about you, as well as certain information about our
  collection and use of your personal information.
• You may request that we delete information we collected from you, subject
  to certain exceptions.

  that we maintain about you.

• California Notice of Financial Incentive. We offer certain programs, such as our United Tax Pros referral program, that provides rewards and exclusive offers (the “Program”). When you sign up for the Program, we typically ask you to provide your name and contact information (such as your email address), as well as the contact information for individuals you will refer to us. Under California law, our Program might be interpreted as “financial incentive” program as it involves the collection of personal information. We do not assign a monetary value to the information we collect. Based on our reasonable estimate, the value of the personal information you provide to us is related to the value of the referral reward and free or discounted products or services offered through the Program.  This value is based on the expense related to offering those free or discounted products or services. You or any person you refer to us may withdraw from participating in the Program at any time by contacting us at 877-206-0067.
