Effective Date: November, 2025

​At RiverGarden Tax & Accounting, protecting your personal and financial information is one of my highest priorities. As a sole-practitioner firm, I handle all client data myself — no employees or outside contractors have access to your records.

​

How I Protect Your Information

• Encrypted Systems: All computers and storage devices use full-disk encryption to prevent unauthorized access.

• Secure Document Exchange: All documents are shared through an encrypted client portal or password-protected files — never through unsecured email.

• Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA): All software and services that store or access sensitive information require MFA for added protection.

• Privacy by Design: No third parties, assistants, or remote staff have access to your data.

• Secure Physical Storage: Any physical documents are stored in locked cabinets and shredded when no longer needed.

• Daily Backups: Encrypted backups are performed regularly to protect your information against loss or hardware failure.

• Annual Security Review: I review and update security practices each year to meet IRS, FTC, and GLBA requirements.

​​

Your Privacy Matters

If you have questions or ever need guidance on how to securely share your documents, please reach out anytime. Your trust and data security will always be treated with the highest level of care.
