Last Updated: July 2026
1. Introduction
TaxBezzie values your privacy and is committed to handling your personal information responsibly. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, how we store it, when we may share it, and the choices available to you regarding your information. By accessing or using TaxBezzie, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy.
2. Information We Collect
Depending on how you use TaxBezzie, we may collect information including your name, email address, contact number, residential address, date of birth, tax identification information, employment details, salary information, bank account details, tax-related information, uploaded certificates, invoices, receipts, supporting documents, payment information, login information, IP address, browser information, device information, and any other information you voluntarily provide while using our platform.
3. How We Use Your Information
We use your information to create and manage your account, authenticate your identity, prepare German tax returns, perform tax calculations, electronically submit tax returns where authorized, process payments, communicate important account updates, provide customer support, improve our platform, prevent fraud, maintain platform security, comply with legal obligations, and operate our services efficiently.
4. Information You Provide
You are responsible for ensuring that all personal information, tax information, financial information, and uploaded documents provided through TaxBezzie are accurate, complete, truthful, and kept up to date. Incorrect or incomplete information may affect tax calculations, tax return preparation, or the outcome of your filing.
5. Sharing of Information
TaxBezzie does not sell or rent your personal information. We may share your information only where reasonably necessary to provide our services, process payments, authenticate users, host our platform, submit tax returns to the German tax authorities upon your authorization, comply with legal obligations, protect our legal rights, investigate fraud, or respond to lawful requests from public authorities.
6. Third-Party Services
To operate TaxBezzie efficiently, we may use trusted third-party service providers including cloud hosting providers, payment processors, email service providers, authentication providers, and government-operated electronic filing systems such as ELSTER where applicable. These providers receive only the information reasonably necessary to perform their services and are responsible for handling such information in accordance with their own policies.
7. Cookies and Similar Technologies
TaxBezzie uses cookies and similar technologies to maintain secure login sessions, remember your preferences, improve website functionality, enhance security, and provide a better user experience. Where applicable, non-essential cookies will only be used after you provide your consent through our cookie banner. For more information, please refer to our Cookie Policy.
8. Marketing Communications
If you choose to receive marketing communications, TaxBezzie may occasionally send information regarding new features, product updates, announcements, promotional offers, or other relevant services. You may withdraw your consent or unsubscribe from marketing communications at any time using the unsubscribe option provided or by updating your account preferences where available.
9. Data Storage and Security
Your information may be stored on servers operated by TaxBezzie or trusted infrastructure providers. We implement reasonable technical, administrative, and organizational measures designed to protect your information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, loss, or misuse. However, no method of electronic transmission or internet storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure, and therefore absolute security cannot be guaranteed.
10. Data Retention
TaxBezzie retains personal information and tax-related records for as long as reasonably necessary to provide our services, maintain user accounts, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, prevent fraud, enforce our agreements, or satisfy legitimate business requirements. After the applicable retention period, information may be securely deleted or anonymized where appropriate.
11. International Data Transfers
Depending on the infrastructure and third-party service providers used by TaxBezzie, your information may be processed or stored in countries other than your country of residence. By using our platform, you acknowledge that such transfers may occur where reasonably necessary to provide our services.
12. Your Choices and Rights
You may review and update certain account information through your TaxBezzie account where such functionality is available. You may also contact us to request correction of inaccurate information, closure of your account, or deletion of your personal information where permitted by applicable law. Please note that we may retain certain information where required for legal obligations, fraud prevention, dispute resolution, accounting purposes, tax compliance, or other legitimate business requirements.
13. Account Closure
You may request the closure of your TaxBezzie account by contacting our support team. Closing your account does not automatically delete information that we are legally required or reasonably entitled to retain. Certain records may continue to be stored for legal, accounting, security, fraud prevention, or operational purposes.
14. Children's Privacy
TaxBezzie is intended for individuals who are at least 18 years of age and legally capable of entering into binding agreements. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If we become aware that personal information has been collected from a child without appropriate authorization, we will take reasonable steps to remove such information.
15. Changes to this Privacy Policy
TaxBezzie may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our services, operational practices, technology, or legal requirements. The updated version will be published on this page together with the revised effective date. Your continued use of the platform after such changes become effective constitutes your acceptance of the revised Privacy Policy.
