Information Collection and Use
Booked Financial LLC is the sole owner of the information we collect. Booked Financial LLC collects information from our users at several different points on our Web Sites as well as through product registration, and various other means. We will not sell, share, or rent this information to others in any way that differs from what is disclosed in this statement. By providing Booked Financial LLC with your contact information you expressly consent to the use of this contact information, including to provide you with information on products and services offered or to be offered by Booked Financial LLC and its affiliates, as well as to allow select other parties with whom Booked Financial LLC conducts business (“Third-Party Providers”) to provide you with information about certain products and services.

Registration
In order to access advanced support options online at our member support site, a user must first complete the user registration form. During this login process a user is required to give his/her User Name or Email and a user created password. This information is used to identify the user before he/she accesses the advanced support options. The user is required to provide this information when accessing advanced support options so that we can provide a more personalized support experience.

Ordering
Our product order forms require you to disclose personal information. Here a user must provide contact information (such as name and shipping address) and financial information (such as credit card number and expiration date). This information is used for billing purposes and to fulfill the customers’ order(s). If we experience difficulty while processing an order, the contact information is used to contact the user. Credit card information is handled in compliance with applicable rules and regulations (i.e., the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard) by PayPal ® and users should read and abide by the terms and agreements of our credit processor PayPal when ordering.

Cookies
A cookie is a small text file that is placed on a user’s hard drive by a web browser, at the request of a web page server. Cookies cannot be used to run programs, deliver viruses to your computer, or extract personal information from your computer. The cookies we assign to you are unique, and can only be read by our web servers. Cookies can provide our users with a more personalized and convenient visit to our Web Sites. For instance, by setting a cookie on our site, the user may not have to reenter their username multiple times, thereby saving time while on our site. However, a user can still use our site if they reject the cookie. Cookies may also enable us to track and target the interests of our users in order to enhance the experience customers have while on our sites.

Log Files
We use Internet Protocol (“IP”) addresses to analyze trends, administer our site, track users’ movement, and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use. IP addresses of visitors to our public Web Sites are not linked to personally identifiable information. Booked Financial LLC  may, in its sole discretion, record the IP address of the computer from which an electronically filed return originated as part of our ongoing effort to detect fraudulent information being transmitted via the Internet.

Sharing
From time to time, Booked Financial LLC  may outsource the performance of certain administrative functions (e.g., processing credit card transactions, mailing Booked Financial LLC  marketing or account information, performing some accounting services). In these situations the third-party service providers do not retain, share, store or use personally identifiable information for any secondary purposes. Booked Financial LLC partners with third party companies that provide specific services such as merchant services, tech support and bank product processing. When you sign up for services or products of a third party with whom Booked Financial LLC conducts business, we will share your name or contact information to the extent necessary for the third party to provide such products or services. These parties are not granted permission by Booked Financial LLC to use personally identifiable information for any purpose other than providing these services; however, such third parties may have a different privacy policy. Although Booked Financial LLC does not sell or rent its customer lists, it may share your contact information with carefully selected Third-Party Providers for purposes of providing you with information about products and services that may be useful for your business. In such situations, Booked Financial LLC will enter into a written agreement with the Third-Party Provider prior to sharing your information and such agreement will contain confidentiality and non-disclosure provisions intended to protect your information. Except as set forth in this Privacy Statement, personally identifiable information is not otherwise released by Booked Financial LLC to outside parties unless required by law or legal process (for example, subpoena or court order). Booked Financial LLC reserves the right to make exceptions to this policy in exceptional circumstances (such as suspected illegal activity) on a case by case basis and at the sole discretion of Booked Financial LLC. Booked Financial LLC abides by applicable laws and regulations governing the disclosure of information to governmental agencies.

Links
Our Web Sites may contain links to other web sites. Please be aware that Booked Financial LLC is not responsible for the privacy practices of such other sites. We encourage our users to be aware when they leave our site and to read the privacy statements of each and every web site that collects personally identifiable information. This privacy statement applies solely to information collected by the Web Sites of Booked Financial LLC and no other sites.

Newsletter/Blog
We provide users the opportunity to receive newsletters via e-mail. If a user wishes to subscribe to our newsletter, we ask for contact information such as name and e-mail address. Users who no longer wish to receive our newsletter may opt-out of receiving these communications by using the unsubscribe option in the newsletter email or by contacting Booked Financial LLC Marketing at sales@bookedfinancial.com. Surveys & Contests From time-to-time we request information from users via surveys or contests. Participation in these surveys or contests is completely voluntary and the user therefore has a choice whether or not to disclose this information. Information requested may include contact information (such as your name and shipping address), and demographic information (such as zip code, business size, etc.). Contact information will be used to notify contest winners and to award prizes. Survey (demographic) information will be used for the purposes of monitoring or improving the use and satisfaction of our site, products and/or services. Our surveys and contests may have separate rules other than those listed above. We will identify how the information supplied may be used in each such individual case.

Security
Booked Financial LLC takes strong precautions to protect our users’ information. When users submit sensitive information to Booked Financial LLC via the Web Sites or otherwise, their information is protected both on-line and off-line. When our return query form asks users to enter sensitive information such as a social security number, that information is protected with encryption software that sets the Internet standard for secure transactions – Secure Sockets Layer technology (“SSL”). While on a secure page the lock icon on the bottom of web browsers such as Microsoft Internet Explorer becomes locked, as opposed to un-locked or open, when you are just ‘surfing’. To learn more about SSL and Booked Financial LLC ’s online security measures, see our Security Statement (available from the footer of our Web Sites). While we use SSL encryption to protect sensitive information online, we also take strong precautions to protect our users’ information off-line. All of our users’ information, not just the sensitive information mentioned above, is restricted in our offices. Only employees who require the information to perform a specific job (for example, our billing clerk or a customer support representative) are granted access to personally identifiable information. Our employees must record the instance in your records each time your information is accessed. Furthermore, ALL employees are kept up-to-date on our security and privacy practices. On an ongoing basis, as well as any time new policies are added, our employees are notified and/or reminded about the importance we place on privacy and what they can do to ensure our users’ information is protected. Finally, the servers that we store personally identifiable information on are kept in a secure environment, in a limited access room inside a locked case.

Site and Service Updates
From time to time we may send the user announcements regarding site and customer service updates. Members are not able to unsubscribe from customer service announcements, which contain important information about the service. We communicate with the user to provide requested services and in regards to issues relating to their account via e-mail or phone. It is the user’s responsibility to ensure that his/her contact information is current and correct for various purposes.

Correction/Updating Personal Information
If a user’s personally identifiable information changes (such as e-mail address), or if a user no longer wishes to use our services, we will provide a way for the user to correct, update or remove the personal data they provided to us. Information regarding how to make such changes is available by contacting Customer Support. When requesting a change, please provide the current information as well as the corrected information as it should appear following the change. Your customer identification number, printed name, title, signature and contact telephone number must also be included so that we may verify the request. Whenever possible, supporting documentation should be provided to validate the requested change. Requests should be addressed to “Data Entry” at support@bookedfinancial.com

Change of Control
In the event of a sale, merger, transfer, exchange or other disposition (whether of assets, stock or otherwise) of all or a portion of Booked Financial LLC  and/or its subsidiaries, users personally identifiable information may be transferred. Users will have the opportunity to opt out of further secondary use of information following any change of control. Notification of Changes If we decide to materially change our Privacy Policy, we will post those changes on the page(s) of our Web Sites where the policy is regularly located (and with an updated revision date) so that our users can always be made aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances, if any, we disclose it. We will use information in accordance with the Privacy Policy under which it was collected. Booked Financial LLC encourages you to periodically review this Privacy Policy to be informed of how we are protecting your information.

Customer Responsibilities
While Booked Financial LLC provides significant security measures to protect the privacy and confidentiality of the user’s information, the tax paying customer is responsible for protecting the confidentiality of any UserIDs and passwords created within the website. The customer is also responsible for protecting the confidentiality of all tax return information originating from his/her account, and more particularly such information that is accessed through the use of such UserIDs and/or passwords via the website or email.
