How We Share Data

We offer this encrypted electronic file exchange to help with document preservation, retention, and secure exchange of information.  You are solely responsible for any identify theft or other repercussions when you e-mail, text, send pictures or otherwise exchange information to us in an insecure manner.  This encrypted, secure Client Portal is our preferred method of electronic data exchange.

If you have any issues with this encrypted Client Portal call us at 303.934.2970 or make an appointment to call so we can help.

Electronically

Most of our out-of-state clients and the computer savvy choose to access our shared data portal electronically.  Not even the vendor can look into our shared file folders as the encryption keys are not stored with the data.

Encrypted E-Mail

We can now communicate via encrypted e-mails, just send us an e-mail asking for an encrypted e-mail to which you can reply using the safety and privacy of data encryption.  This should keep your personal identifying information sitting on an e-mail server somewhere from being probed and scanned.

Electronic Signatures

Both the encrypted portal and e-mail allow us to collect electronic signatures for those who wish to skip the office or in-person visit.

Zoom or Phone meetings

In these times of COVID-19 we can change your traditional appointments to phone or Zoom as we work on your tax and bookkeeping matters.

In the Office or Your Home

We are well on our way to a paperless office.  Our computers and data drives are encrypted.  If stolen these are unreadable without the encryption software and keys.  Multiple backup protocols are in place as insurance against accidental data loss.

Browsers Supported

Supported browsers are the latest versions of:

• Google Chrome
• Mozilla Firefox
• Apple Safari – Version 10 or newer (Private Browsing mode may be problematic)
• Microsoft Edge lacks some password reset & security functionality

Note:  Microsoft’s has now retired Internet Browser, and may make using your Client Portal problematic.

Avoid E-mail and Text to Keep Your Data Secure

When you use most “free” e-mail or text platforms, the provider has the right to read your messages and attachments.  Please choose a more secure method to share your important and personally identifying information with us so as to avoid one avenue for identity theft.
