California Privacy Rights (CPRA)

1. Who this applies to

The California Consumer Privacy Act, as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), gives California residents a set of rights over their personal information. TaDa Accounting is a small bookkeeping firm and does not meet the revenue or volume thresholds that make a company a "business" under that law. We extend the rights described below to California residents regardless, because they are the right way to handle other people's information. Read this page alongside our Privacy Policy, which describes our data practices in full.

2. Your rights

• Right to know. Ask what categories and specific pieces of personal information we have collected about you, where it came from, why we collected it, and who we disclosed it to.
• Right to delete. Ask us to delete personal information we hold about you, subject to the exceptions the law allows — we may need to keep records to complete a transaction, comply with a legal obligation, or meet the record-retention rules that apply to accounting work.
• Right to correct. Ask us to fix personal information that is inaccurate.
• Right to opt out of sale or sharing. We do not sell or share personal information, so there is nothing to opt out of. If that ever changes, we will post a "Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information" link before it does.
• Right to limit the use of sensitive personal information. We use sensitive information only to provide the services requested and for the operational purposes the law permits, which is already the limit this right imposes.
• Right to non-discrimination. We will not deny you service, charge you a different price, or give you a lower level of service because you exercised any of these rights.

3. How to submit a request

Send your request to privacy@tada-accounting.com, call (310) 800-4494, or use the form on our contact page. Tell us which right you are exercising.

Before we act, we verify that the request comes from you: we will ask for enough information to match you to our records, and for a deletion or correction request we may ask for further confirmation. An authorized agent may submit a request on your behalf with written permission signed by you, and we may still contact you directly to confirm it.

We respond within 45 days. If we need more time, we will tell you within that period and may take up to another 45 days. There is no charge for a request unless it is manifestly unfounded or excessive, in which case we will explain why before doing anything.

4. Personal information we collect

In the twelve months before the date above, we have collected the following categories of personal information:

• Identifiers — name, email address, telephone number, business name, and IP address.
• Commercial and financial information — client financial data accessed from QuickBooks Online when a client authorizes the connection: transactions, journal entries, reports, chart of accounts, vendor and customer records, and, where authorized, payroll information.
• Internet or network activity — pages viewed on this site, referring website, and similar analytics data.
• Technical data — basic logs needed to operate and secure our systems.
• Professional or employment information — where a client's books contain it, such as payroll records processed on the client's behalf.

We do not seek information from children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 16.

5. Where it comes from and why we collect it

Personal information reaches us from you directly (a form submission, an email, a phone call, or an engagement with our firm), from a client's authorization to connect their QuickBooks Online company file, and automatically from your device when you browse this site. We use it to provide bookkeeping, cleanup, reconciliation, reporting and advisory services to the client who authorized the connection; to respond to enquiries; to operate and secure our systems; and to meet our legal and professional obligations. We do not use it for any purpose incompatible with the one it was collected for.

6. We do not sell or share your personal information

We do not sell personal information, and we do not share it for cross-context behavioural advertising, as the CPRA uses those terms. We have not done so in the twelve months before the date above. We disclose information only to service providers who help us operate — including Intuit, for the QuickBooks Online connection; our AI processing provider; and our website host — under confidentiality obligations, and to authorities where the law requires it. We do not use client financial data to train third-party AI models.

7. How long we keep information

We keep personal information only as long as it is needed for the service it was collected for, and afterwards only as long as our legal, tax and professional record-retention obligations require. Client financial records are held for the retention period that applies to accounting records; enquiries that do not become engagements are held for a far shorter period. When a retention period ends, the information is deleted.
