What kinds of security measures are being taken to safeguard my tax return and personal information after I register and file?
A.All personal information–such as information about your tax returns, your identification number(s), and your checking account or credit card number(s)–is encrypted with Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology when traveling between your browser and our server. We also do not allow your browser to store any of your payment information on your hard drive or in your personal E-File database, as it is possible that an unauthorized person may gain access to your computer. This measure necessitates re-entering your bank or credit card information each time you make a payment through E-File. While this may seem troublesome, we view it as a necessary step in ensuring that such sensitive information is protected and secure.
