Tax Preparation Disclaimer

1. Pixelbase Is a Software Provider, Not a Tax Preparer

Pixelbase provides tax preparation software tools that assist you in organizing your financial data and generating pre-filled tax forms. Pixelbase is not a tax preparation service, accounting firm, certified public accountant (CPA), enrolled agent, or tax attorney. We do not provide tax advice, tax planning, or tax preparation services.

When you use our tax preparation tools, you are preparing your own tax return. Pixelbase acts solely as a software tool that automates the process of organizing data and filling in form fields based on information you provide and authorize. No employee, agent, or representative of Pixelbase reviews, signs, or submits your tax return.

2. Your Responsibility

You are solely responsible for:

• The accuracy and completeness of all financial data, transaction categorizations, and information entered into or processed by the platform
• Reviewing all figures on any generated tax form before printing, signing, and filing
• Signing and filing your tax return with the appropriate federal and state tax authorities by the applicable deadlines
• Paying any taxes, penalties, or interest owed to any tax authority
• Maintaining records of your filed return, supporting documentation, and proof of mailing for the period required by applicable law
• Seeking professional tax advice from a qualified CPA, enrolled agent, or tax attorney for any questions about your specific tax situation

3. No Guarantee of Accuracy or Outcomes

While we strive to ensure that our software correctly maps your financial data to the appropriate IRS form fields, we do not guarantee the accuracy, completeness, or correctness of any generated tax form. Tax law is complex and fact-specific; our software applies general rules that may not account for your particular circumstances.

Pixelbase makes no representations or warranties regarding:

• Whether a generated form will be accepted by the IRS or any state tax authority
• The correctness of any tax calculation, deduction, credit, or classification
• Whether your tax return is complete (additional schedules, forms, or disclosures may be required based on your specific situation)
• Any particular tax outcome, refund amount, or tax liability

4. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Pixelbase shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from or related to your use of the tax preparation tools, including but not limited to:

• Errors or omissions in generated tax forms
• Penalties, interest, or additional taxes assessed by any tax authority
• Missed filing deadlines
• Incorrect categorization of transactions or misapplication of tax rules by the software
• Reliance on any output of the tax preparation tools without independent verification

In no event shall Pixelbase's total liability exceed the fees you paid for the tax preparation feature during the twelve (12) months preceding the event giving rise to the claim.

5. Tax Data Handling

Tax-related data, including Employer Identification Numbers (EINs), Social Security Numbers (SSNs), financial transaction data, and generated tax forms, is handled in accordance with our Privacy Policy and Data Retention Policy. We employ industry-standard encryption and access controls to protect your tax data. However, you acknowledge that no system is completely secure, and you agree to the inherent risks of transmitting sensitive financial information electronically.

6. This Is Not Tax Advice

Nothing provided by Pixelbase through the tax preparation tools, documentation, user interface, or any other medium constitutes tax advice, legal advice, or financial advice. If you have questions about your tax obligations, deductions, credits, or filing requirements, you should consult with a qualified tax professional.

7. State-Specific Requirements

Tax filing requirements vary by state. Our software currently generates federal tax forms only. You may have additional state and local filing obligations that are not addressed by our tools. It is your responsibility to determine and fulfill all applicable state and local tax filing requirements.

8. Changes to This Disclaimer

We may update this Disclaimer from time to time. If we make material changes, we will notify you through the platform or by other appropriate means. Your continued use of the tax preparation tools after any changes indicates your acceptance of the updated Disclaimer.

9. Contact

If you have questions about this Disclaimer, please contact us through our Legal Center or at the contact information provided in our Terms of Service.
