27 Using the Site ⑥ Usage Guide, Privacy Notice and Terms
Question for this chapter. Do I need to sign in to use this site, and what happens to the numbers I type and the documents I upload?
Answer. The site works without an account, and the AI features come with daily limits for each visitor. Numbers you type are calculated on the site's server, and the privacy notice says the server does not keep your entries, documents or AI conversations. Document images go on to an outside AI service provider without masking, so covering private details before you upload is up to you. The terms describe the site as a research and education simulation, and its results are reference material to bring to a professional.
What to check
- Pick the AI feature you expect to use most and read its daily count on the usage guide screen.
- Convert the daily reset time on the screen to your own time zone.
- If an AI feature stops, remember you can keep going by typing your information in yourself.
- Cover names, ID numbers and account numbers on any document image before uploading it.
- Leave out other people's documents, bank passwords or certificates, and pages showing a full ID or SSN number.
What to confirm. Compare the wording on the usage guide, privacy notice and terms screens with what this summary says, because the screen you see is the current version.
One-line summary. These three screens explain how the site can be used, where your information travels, and why its results serve as reference material rather than a filed return.
