At Compass Tax Center, protecting your personal and financial information is one of our highest priorities.
We understand that tax preparation and tax resolution services require the collection of sensitive information, including Social Security numbers, tax returns, financial records, and government correspondence. We take that responsibility seriously.
Unlike traditional email, our client portal is designed specifically for the secure exchange of sensitive information. Whenever possible, we encourage clients to upload documents directly through the portal rather than sending confidential information through standard email.
We follow industry-standard security practices used throughout the tax and financial services industry to help protect client information. While no online system can guarantee absolute security, we are committed to maintaining reasonable and appropriate safeguards to protect your confidential information.
If you have questions about how your information is stored, transmitted, or protected, we are always happy to discuss our security practices with you.
