Privacy Policy
This policy explains how SEKO Accountants & Advisors handles personal information, in line with the Privacy Act 1988 and the Australian Privacy Principles.
What we collect
When you contact us through this website we collect only what you give us: your name, business name, phone number, email address and whatever you choose to tell us about your situation. If you use the tax calculator, the income figure you enter is used to produce an estimate in your browser, and is only sent to us if you choose to request a call back.
As a client, we also collect the information we need to do the work, which can include tax file numbers, financial records, identity documents and details of your business affairs.
Why we collect it
- To respond to your enquiry and arrange a consultation
- To provide accounting, taxation and advisory services
- To meet our obligations to the Australian Taxation Office, the Tax Practitioners Board and other regulators
- To send you updates, if you have asked to receive them
How it is stored
Enquiries submitted through this website are transmitted over an encrypted connection and stored in our lead system. Client records are held in our practice software. We take reasonable steps to protect personal information from misuse, loss and unauthorised access.
Who we share it with
We do not sell your information and we do not share it for marketing. We disclose information only where it is necessary to deliver our services or where the law requires it, for example lodging returns with the Australian Taxation Office, or to service providers who host our systems and are bound to protect it.
Marketing
If you join our newsletter we will send occasional tax dates and updates. Every message includes an unsubscribe link and we act on unsubscribes promptly. We do not add enquiry contacts to the newsletter without their agreement.
Cookies
This site does not use advertising or tracking cookies. The map on the contact page is loaded from Google Maps, and only when you scroll to it, at which point Google may set its own cookies under its own privacy policy.
Access, correction and complaints
You can ask us what personal information we hold about you, ask us to correct it, or ask us to delete it where we are not required to keep it. Tax records generally must be retained for five years.
