4. Your Client Data — Controller vs Processor

As a CRM platform, TaxZeo stores data you input about your own clients ("Client Data"). You remain the Data Fiduciary / Data Controller for all Client Data:

  • You are responsible for obtaining consent from your clients to store their data in third-party software.
  • You are responsible for ensuring the accuracy and lawfulness of Client Data you upload.
  • We process Client Data solely on your instructions to deliver the Service.
  • We do not access Client Data for our own commercial purposes.
  • We do not sell, license, or share Client Data with third parties except as required by law.

If any of your clients exercise rights under the DPDP Act against you, we will cooperate to help you fulfil those obligations within reasonable technical means.

5. How We Share Information

5.1 Sub-processors

We use the following trusted sub-processors who are bound by data protection obligations:

  • Razorpay Software Pvt. Ltd. — payment processing
  • Amazon Web Services (AWS) — cloud infrastructure (Mumbai region, ap-south-1)
  • Postmark / AWS SES — transactional email delivery
  • Cloudflare — DDoS protection and CDN

5.2 Legal Requirements

We may disclose data to law enforcement, courts, or regulatory bodies when required by Indian law or a valid legal order.

5.3 Business Transfers

In the event of a merger, acquisition, or asset sale, user data may be transferred. We will notify affected users with 30 days' notice before any such transfer.

We do not sell personal data to advertisers or data brokers.

6. Data Storage and Security

  • Data is stored on AWS Mumbai (ap-south-1) servers within India
  • Data in transit: TLS 1.3 encryption
  • Data at rest: AES-256 encryption for sensitive fields
  • Role-based access control (RBAC) — employees access only what they need
  • Routine penetration testing and vulnerability assessments
  • Automatic daily backups retained for 30 days

Despite these measures, no Internet transmission is 100% secure. We encourage you to use strong passwords and enable two-factor authentication when available.

7. Data Retention

  • Active account: data retained for the duration of your subscription
  • After account cancellation: data retained for 90 days during which you may export it
  • After 90 days: all firm and client data is permanently deleted from production systems
  • Backups: purged within 30 days of the deletion date
  • Legal hold: if required by law, certain records may be retained longer
  • Anonymised analytics data may be retained indefinitely
