Privacy policy

At EPA – EVOLVE Professional Alliance, your privacy is our priority. This policy explains exactly what data we collect, how we use it, who we share it with, and how you can control it.

Last updated 14 November 2025

Draft for review. This text is carried over from the earlier site and must be reviewed by EPA's counsel before launch.

1. Information we collect

We collect only the information necessary to deliver our services and improve your experience. This includes three categories of data:

Personal details
Your name, email address, phone number, and mailing or registered business address — provided when you register, contact us, or engage a service.
Business & tax information
Business name, entity type, EIN/ITIN details, tax-related documents, and financial information you provide during service engagements such as tax return preparation or business formation.
Technical data
IP address, device type, browser, and anonymized browsing activity collected automatically when you visit our website — used only to improve website performance and security.

We collect this information when you register for an account, submit a service form, contact our team via phone or email, or browse our website. We do not collect data passively beyond standard technical logs.

2. How we use your information

We use the information we collect for specific, defined purposes only. We do not use your data for targeted advertising, profiling, or any purpose unrelated to delivering our services.

Communication
Responding to your requests, sending service confirmations, status updates, and necessary compliance notices.
Service improvement
Analysing anonymised technical data to improve website performance, usability, and security — never linked to your identity.
Legal & regulatory

5. Sharing your information

We share your information only in the limited circumstances described below. We do not share data for advertising, analytics resale, or any commercial purpose beyond providing the services you've requested.

Trusted service providers
We may share data with vetted third-party providers who assist us in delivering services — including mailing, customer support, payment processing, and cloud hosting. These partners are contractually prohibited from using your data for any other purpose.
Legal authorities
We may disclose information when required to do so by law, in response to valid legal processes, or to protect the rights, safety, or property of EvolvePA, our clients, or the public.
IRS & government agencies
Where you have specifically authorised us to act as your Third-Party Designee, we share relevant application information with the IRS or other government agencies solely to complete your filing or application.

6. International storage & processing

As a firm with offices in both the United States and India, your data may be stored or processed in either country, or in other locations where our cloud service providers operate. We ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place wherever your data is handled.

By using our services, you consent to the transfer and processing of your information in these locations. We take commercially reasonable steps to ensure your data is protected in accordance with this Privacy Policy regardless of where it is processed.

We aim to respond within 2 business days.
