You must be at least 18 years of age and legally capable of entering into binding agreements to use TaxBezzie. By using the platform, you confirm that you satisfy these requirements and that the information you provide belongs to you or that you are legally authorized to submit it.
3. Our Services
TaxBezzie provides software that assists users in preparing and electronically filing German tax returns. All calculations, estimates, and generated tax documents are based solely on the information entered or uploaded by the user. The platform may submit tax returns electronically to the German tax authorities using the official ELSTER system where applicable.
4. No Tax or Legal Advice
TaxBezzie is a software platform and does not provide legal, accounting, financial, or professional tax advice. Information generated by the platform is intended solely to assist users in preparing their tax returns and should not be considered professional advice. Users remain solely responsible for determining whether their tax return is complete, accurate, and appropriate for their individual circumstances.
5. User Responsibilities
You agree to provide complete, accurate, truthful, and up-to-date information throughout the tax preparation process. You are solely responsible for reviewing all information before submission, ensuring that all supporting documentation is correct, retaining copies of your tax documents, and responding to any requests made directly by the German tax authorities unless otherwise expressly agreed by TaxBezzie.
6. Accuracy of Information
TaxBezzie is not responsible for incorrect calculations, rejected tax returns, penalties, audits, interest charges, delayed processing, or inaccurate filing outcomes resulting from inaccurate, incomplete, misleading, or outdated information supplied by the user.

TaxBezzie is not responsible for losses arising from your failure to adequately protect your account credentials.
9. Payments and Refunds
All fees paid to TaxBezzie are final and non-refundable, except where a refund is required under applicable law. No refund will be provided if the user chooses not to complete the filing process, files the tax return independently, submits the tax return through another service provider, receives a lower refund than estimated, receives no refund, or is dissatisfied with the outcome of the tax assessment.
10. Estimated Tax Refund
Any refund estimate, tax calculation, or projected refund amount displayed by TaxBezzie is provided solely as an estimate based on the information supplied by the user. The final tax assessment and any refund issued are determined exclusively by the competent German tax authorities.

11. Documents and File Uploads
Users are responsible for ensuring that all documents, certificates, invoices, receipts, and other files uploaded to TaxBezzie are accurate, complete, lawful, virus-free, and belong to them or that they have the legal authority to upload them. TaxBezzie reserves the right to reject, remove, or refuse to process any file that is corrupted, malicious, unlawful, or otherwise violates these Terms and Conditions.
12. Third-Party Services
TaxBezzie may rely on third-party providers including payment processors, authentication services, cloud hosting providers, email providers, and government filing systems. We are not responsible for interruptions, delays, security incidents, or failures caused by third-party services that are beyond our reasonable control.
13. Electronic Submission
Once a tax return has been electronically submitted to the German tax authorities through TaxBezzie, it may no longer be possible to modify, withdraw, or cancel the submission. Users are responsible for carefully reviewing all information before authorizing electronic filing.
14. Processing Time
TaxBezzie does not control or guarantee the time required by the German tax authorities to process a tax return, issue a tax assessment, or pay any refund. Processing times vary depending on the competent tax authority and individual circumstances.

21. Filing Outside TaxBezzie
If you choose to submit your tax return directly to the German tax authorities or through another service after preparing your return using TaxBezzie, our services relating to that tax year shall be considered complete. TaxBezzie has no obligation to review, respond to, explain, or provide assistance regarding any notices, letters, tax assessments, objections, or other communications received from the German tax authorities for tax returns that were not electronically filed through TaxBezzie.
22. Tax Authority Decisions
TaxBezzie cannot guarantee that a tax return will be accepted without adjustment, that deductions, exemptions, or expenses claimed will be approved, or that any refund will be issued. All tax assessments, refund amounts, and decisions are made solely by the competent German tax authorities.
23. Account Suspension or Termination
