Your financial records demand uncompromised protection. Discover how TaxAnchor protects your tax schedules, salary slips, and PAN data with bank-grade encryption and zero data monetization.
Multi-layered defenses safeguarding your identity, income records, and filing transactions.
Every data exchange between your browser, application servers, and the CBDT e-filing gateway is encrypted using TLS 1.3 cryptographic suites with Perfect Forward Secrecy (PFS).
All stored PANs, Aadhaar tokens, salary schedules, and bank account metadata are encrypted at rest using AES-256 with KMS key rotation.
TaxAnchor never sells, trades, brokers, or leverages your salary records, P&L statements, or PAN records with third-party lenders, insurers, or marketing networks.
Uploaded Form-16 PDFs and broker spreadsheets are parsed inside ephemeral, stateless memory sandboxes and purged automatically after data extraction.
Empaneled Chartered Accountants can only view client schedules during active assisted filing sessions with explicit, time-limited client consent.
Direct compliance with Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT) XML/JSON schemas for AY 2026-27 and Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) security benchmarks.
Unlike traditional financial portals that monetize user data by offering loan solicitations and credit cards, TaxAnchor operates purely on software subscriptions and professional advisory fees.
Clear answers on how we protect and process your tax returns.
No. Uploaded Form-16 PDFs and broker Excel sheets are processed inside an isolated, stateless memory sandbox solely to extract necessary numbers (e.g. Section 10 allowances, Section 80C deductions, TDS credits). Once extracted, the raw file is permanently deleted unless you explicitly choose to save an encrypted copy in your vault.
Never. Unlike free tax aggregators that monetize user financial profiles by recommending loans and credit cards, TaxAnchor operates with a strict Zero-Monetization Privacy Policy. Your income details are never shared with credit bureaus, loan agents, or advertisers.
If you use Self-File, only you have access to your data. If you choose CA-Assisted filing, your assigned licensed Chartered Accountant is granted temporary, audit-logged access strictly to review and file your return. All CA interactions are bound by strict NDAs and ICAI professional ethics rules.
PAN and Aadhaar references are stored using cryptographic tokenization and salted hashing. We never store raw Aadhaar biometric details. Aadhaar OTP verification is conducted directly through UIDAI / Income Tax Department secure gateways.
