Last Updated: January 23, 2017 Your information is secure with Tax Drop Box Tax DropBox respects your privacy. This Online Privacy Policy describes the privacy practices for Landers Tax Service website (www.landerstaxservice.com or the “Site”). It does not cover information that is stored using Landers Tax Service services.
Contents From time to time, and without prior notice to you, Landers Tax service may update this Online Privacy Policy to reflect changes in our personal information practices. We will post the updated version on this page and indicate at the top of the Online Privacy Policy when it was most recently updated.
What information does Landers Tax Service obtain and how is it used? PERSONAL INFORMATION: We collect personal information from users through our Site, including first and last names, email address, billing contact information, credit card number and a password. When a user registers online we need to obtain the needed information for tax filing purposes and to setup your account.
To maintain our quality of service and to assist in the analysis of product performance, we may also gather data on connection information, including the timing and size of all packets sent over the Internet during a session.
Landers Tax Service may also collect certain standard information about your computer for security and identification purposes. This information may include: IP addresses, domain names, access times, browser type and browser version, cookies, and other unique identifying information of machines that have our software downloaded and installed on them. This information is used for the operation of the service, to identify and protect our customers and to control unauthorized use or abuse of our services. All information is encrypted during transmission and is stored securely within our servers.
In addition to required member information, we may conduct surveys and ask users to volunteer demographic information to be used on an aggregate basis for internal market research, presentation to advertisers and joint research projects with outside companies involved in product development. We use such information to better focus our product and personalize the scope of services offered to each individual user.
We may post publicly available testimonials we receive via social media channels such as Twitter and Facebook to our web site. If you wish to have your testimonial removed, you can contact us via one of the methods listed in this Online Privacy Policy.
We use cookies to collect and track information and to improve our service. A cookie is a small data file that certain websites write to your hard drive when you visit them. When you register on the Site, we may use cookies to store unique, randomly assigned user IDs that we generate for administrative purposes. We may use “persistent cookies” to store personal information including registration data and passwords to enable you to enter the Site without having to log on each time.
Persistent cookies may remain on your computer’s hard drive after you terminate your session. We may use “session cookies” to enable certain features of the Site, track user traffic patterns, monitor aggregate usage and enhance the overall user experience. Session cookies usually expire and are deleted when you close your web browser. Credit card information is not stored in cookies.
Local shared objects, also known as Flash cookies, may be used by third parties for some of our product training videos. These cookies are used to store preferences for the videos such as volume control. Flash cookies are not used to back up, recreate, or re-spawn a browser cookie that a user may delete. Flash cookies are different from browser cookies because of the amount of and type of data stored, as well as the way that data is stored. Cookie management tools provided by your browser will not remove Flash cookies. To learn how to manage privacy and storage settings for Flash cookies please click here.
You can use your browser settings to instruct your browser to stop accepting cookies or to prompt you before accepting a cookie from the websites you visit. If you do not accept cookies you may not be able to use all portions of the Site or all of the functionalities of the Landers Tax Service products and services. You can still review the Site if you choose to set your browser to refuse all cookies; however, session cookies must be enabled to establish an account and to download and install any of our software.
Landers Tax Service may also partners with select marketing companies and affiliates to help us track the effectiveness of our Site, generate visitor traffic and manage our advertising on other sites. When a third party refers a visitor to us from any other site, they set a web beacon and a cookie on our Site. An ad ID and a partner ID are stored in the cookie, but no personal information specific to the actual visitor is stored. Landers Tax Service does not see the cookie. We only include the web beacon on our page, which results in a request to the partner’s servers from the customer’s browser. We have no control over their use of tracking technologies after they are placed on our Site. These third parties may use this information to deliver targeted advertising to you on other websites you visit. If you wish to not have this information used for the purpose of serving you targeted ads, you may opt-out by clicking here. Please note this does not opt you out of being served advertising. You will continue to receive generic ads.
We continuously improve our Site, our products and we utilize different third party analytical tools to help us do so. We are interested in how visitors use our Site, our desktop tools, and our mobile applications and what they like and dislike, and where they have problems. Our products, desktop tools and mobile applications use analytical tools to understand feature usage patterns, to enhance and improve your product experience and offer you specific Landers Tax Service usage tips and guidance. To increase functionality and enhance your user experience, this usage information may be linked to personal information that we have about individual users. We maintain ownership of this data and we do not share this type of data about individual users with third parties.
Our mobile applications also use analytical tools to help gather non-personally identifiable data about download and application usage. In our use of mobile applications we may utilize GeoLocation data, but only if you specifically opt-in to collection of such data in connection with a particular service. We may use information such as IP addresses to determine the general geographic areas of our visitors, but this information is not correlated to personal information about individual users. The web beacons used in connection with our web analytics services do not share any personal information about our Site or our visitors with third parties. These tools may gather data such as what browser a person uses, what operating systems are used, what is downloaded, and what content, products and services are reviewed when visiting or registering for services on our Site or mobile applications. This information is used solely to assist Landers Tax Service in maintaining a more effective and useful Site for our customers.
We, or our third-party service providers acting on our behalf, collect and track information including aggregate traffic patterns, domain names, browser types, MIME types and web pages visited before coming to our Site. To increase functionality and enhance your user experience, this information may sometimes be correlated with personal information about individual users.
Our Website includes Social Media Features, such as the Facebook Like and Google +1 buttons. These Features may collect your IP address, which page you are visiting on our site, and may set a cookie to enable the Feature to function properly. Social Media Features are either hosted by a third party or hosted directly on our Site. Your interactions with these Features are governed by the privacy policy of the company providing it.
With whom does Landers Tax Service share the information? Your privacy is important to us. We do not sell or otherwise disclose your personal information we obtain through the Site to third parties, except as described here.
We may share certain personal information we collect about you with our service providers who perform functions on our behalf. Examples include processing credit card payments, sending postal mail and email, analyzing data, and providing marketing assistance and customer service. These service providers are not authorized by us to use or disclose personal information except as needed to perform their functions or comply with legal requirements, and they may not use it for any other purpose. Further, they must process the personal information in accordance with this Online Privacy Policy. We reserve the right to transfer any information we have about you in the event we sell or transfer all or a portion of our business or assets (including in the event of a reorganization, dissolution or liquidation).
In some cases we provide services or sell product lines jointly with other businesses. For these co-branded offerings in which a third party is involved in your transactions, we will sometimes share or jointly collect customer information related to those transactions with that third party. On the co-branded registration pages we will state who is collecting or receiving the information and whose privacy statement governs its use so that you will know at the time you create your account how your information will be used. If you are registered with Landers Tax Service through a partnership and you request to opt out of receiving promotional emails, in order to comply with the provisions in the CAN-SPAM Act, we will also provide your email address to that partner so that they may also discontinue sending you messages on behalf of Landers Tax Service.
We may sometimes share or jointly collect information with our affiliated entities including our parent entity and the subsidiaries and divisions of our parent entity.
We reserve the right to disclose your personal information as required by law or legal process, in response to a request by law enforcement authorities, when we believe that disclosure is necessary or appropriate to protect our rights or to prevent physical harm or financial loss, or in connection with an investigation of suspected or actual illegal activity.
