The servers automatically collect and store information in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits when you visit the website. The stored information is:
This data will not be merged with other data sources. The data is collected based on Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR.
The website operator has a legitimate interest in the technically error-free presentation and optimization of this website – and server log files are therefore recorded.
The servers used for hosting the website are geographically located within the European Union (EU) or the European Economic Area (EEA).
We use the IP address and other information provided by the user (e.g. the postal code used for registration or ordering) to approach regional target groups (so-called “geotargeting”).
The regional target group approach is used, for example, to automatically display regional offers or advertisements that often are more relevant to users. The legal basis for the use of the IP address and any other information provided by the user (e.g. postal code) is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR, based on our legitimate interest in ensuring a more precise target group approach and thus providing offers and advertising with greater relevance for our users.
Part of the IP address and the additional information provided by the user (e.g. postal code) are merely processed and not stored separately.
You can prevent geotargeting by, for example, using a VPN or proxy server that prevents accurate localisation. In addition, depending on the browser you are using, you can also deactivate a location localisation in the corresponding browser settings (as far as this is supported by the respective browser).
We use geotargeting on our website for the following purposes:
We use various service providers to deliver the service we offer through the app.
Generally, where such services are essential to providing the basic service offered by the website, we have a legitimate interest in sharing your data with the relevant service providers to provide the relevant website service.
Where such services are required for additional services, enhanced functionalities, or additional purposes, your personal data will only be transferred to service providers if you provide consent.You can manage your consent preferences at any time here: https://www.taxdoo.com/en/

We regularly review this Privacy Policy and reserve the right to amend this Privacy Policy to allow for the further development of our website or due to changes in legal or regulatory requirements. Any changes to the Policy will be reflected on this page and, if appropriate, we will notify you by email of significant changes.
This privacy policy has been created with the assistance of DataGuard.
We use numerous methods to protect your data. All data is encrypted and transmitted via secure connections. In addition, we maintain clearly defined user rights internally, use two-factor authentication in all possible cases, and much more.
In order to ensure compliance with sales tax regulations – and only for this reason – we collect personal data of your end customers. We do not sell any data and do not (mis)use it for other purposes.
We only use servers in the German data centre of our provider Amazon Web Services. This enables high availability as well as complex security measures.
To enable your tax declarations abroad, we transfer your data to our tax consultant partners in other EU countries. Of course this is also done via secure connections.
Of course we conclude DPAs. These can easily be signed electronically by our clients – as soon as we receive your electronically signed document, we countersign it and send you the complete contract.
