Privacy Policy

Austral Financial Services respects your privacy and is committed to protecting the personal and financial information you share with us. This policy explains, in general terms, how we handle that information.

Information we collect. To provide accounting, tax, payroll, and consulting services, we collect information you provide to us directly, such as your name, contact details, tax identification numbers, and the financial documents and records needed to prepare your returns and perform our work.

How we use your information. We use your information only to deliver the services you request, to communicate with you, and to meet our professional, legal, and regulatory obligations. We do not sell your information.

How we protect it. We maintain physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards designed to protect your nonpublic personal information, consistent with our professional confidentiality obligations. Please do not submit Social Security numbers, bank details, or tax documents through the website contact form; contact our office to arrange a secure method of sharing sensitive documents.

Sharing your information. We do not disclose your nonpublic personal information to third parties except as necessary to provide our services (for example, filing with a tax authority on your behalf), with your consent, or as permitted or required by law.

Retention. We retain records for the periods required by applicable professional standards and law, after which they are securely disposed of.

Contact us. If you have questions about this policy or how your information is handled, please contact our office.
