1. Introduction

ARP Tax Pro respects your privacy and recognizes the importance of protecting personal and financial information. This Privacy Policy explains the types of information that may be collected through this website, how that information may be used, and the choices available to you.

This policy applies to information collected through arptaxpro.com. Separate privacy notices, engagement agreements, or legal requirements may apply to information collected in connection with tax-preparation and professional services.

2. Information We May Collect

• Contact information, including your name, email address, telephone number, and information entered into website forms.
• Professional-service information you voluntarily provide when requesting tax preparation, tax planning, or related assistance.

• Cookie and analytics information used to operate, secure, understand, and improve the website.
• Communications sent to our office by telephone, email, website forms, or an approved secure portal.

3. Sensitive Tax Information

Please do not submit Social Security numbers, complete tax returns, banking information, passwords, or other highly sensitive records through a standard website contact form or ordinary email. When sensitive documents are needed, ARP Tax Pro may provide access to an approved secure document portal or another appropriate delivery method.

4. How Information May Be Used

• To respond to questions and service requests.
• To provide, administer, and improve requested professional services.
• To schedule consultations and communicate about an existing or potential engagement.
• To operate, maintain, secure, and improve the website.

5. Cookies and Analytics

This website may use essential cookies and similar technologies that support site functionality, security, preferences, performance measurement, or analytics. Where available, you may use the website’s cookie controls or your browser settings to limit nonessential cookies. Restricting cookies may affect certain website features.

6. When Information May Be Shared

Information may be shared with service providers that support website hosting, forms, communications, security, analytics, document delivery, or professional operations. Those providers receive information only as appropriate for their role. Information may also be disclosed when required by law, to protect legal rights or security, in connection with a business transition, or with your direction or consent.

We do not describe information as “sold” in the ordinary sense of exchanging personal information for money. Certain privacy laws may define “sale” or “sharing” more broadly, particularly in connection with advertising or analytics technologies. You may contact us with questions about technologies currently used on this website.

7. Data Security and Retention

We use administrative, technical, and physical safeguards intended to protect information appropriate to its nature. No website, email system, storage method, or internet transmission can be guaranteed completely secure. Information is retained for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described here, to provide services, and to meet legal, tax, professional, security, and recordkeeping obligations.

8. Your Choices and Requests

Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have rights concerning access, correction, deletion, restriction, or disclosure of certain personal information. Rights may be limited by professional, legal, security, and record-retention obligations. To submit a privacy request, contact us using the information below. We may need to verify your identity before acting on a request.
