Website privacy & security

Read the full website notice and guidance for protecting your information.

Website trust & security

Clear boundaries help protect your information.

This public website is informational only and uses an encrypted HTTPS connection. It has no forms, client portal or document-upload facility for submitting personal or tax information. We do not request or accept tax-client information, including information about children, through this website.

  • Appointment scheduling takes place on Microsoft's separate Bookings page, which requests your name and email address to arrange an appointment. Do not include personal tax information, tax documents, Social Security numbers, information about children or other confidential information in appointment notes.
  • Share tax documents and confidential client information only through the secure Intuit Link invitation provided by our office. Do not send them through ordinary email, text messages or social media.
  • Reasonable administrative and technical safeguards are used, but no website, email, or internet transmission can be guaranteed completely secure.

To report a suspected website security issue, email info@karicecpa.com. Do not include confidential tax information in the message.

Website privacy notice

How information is handled on this website.

This notice applies to visitors of karicecpa.com. It does not replace an engagement letter, a client privacy notice, or any consent that may be provided directly in connection with tax services.

Contact and appointment information

Contacting us by phone or email, or scheduling through Microsoft Bookings, takes place outside this public website. We may receive your name, contact details and appointment information through those channels. Use them only for general inquiries and scheduling. Share tax documents and confidential client information through our office-provided secure Intuit Link invitation.

Information processed automatically

Website hosting and security systems may process basic technical information such as an IP address, browser or device type, access time, and requested pages. This information may be used to operate, protect, and understand the performance of the website.

How information is used

Information is used to respond to inquiries, schedule appointments, provide requested services, maintain website security and operations, keep appropriate business records, and comply with professional, regulatory, or legal obligations.

Service providers and disclosures

Information may be processed by providers supporting website hosting, security, business email, and scheduling. We may also disclose information when required by law or reasonably necessary to protect rights, safety, or the integrity of our services. We do not sell or rent personal information for marketing purposes.

Retention and security

Information is retained only as reasonably necessary for the purposes described above and to satisfy professional, legal, security, and recordkeeping obligations. Reasonable safeguards are used, but no internet transmission or storage system is completely secure.

Third-party services

This website links to Microsoft Bookings and may link to other third-party websites. Their collection and use of information are governed by their own privacy notices. Review the Microsoft Privacy Statement before using Microsoft services.
