TaxFile2290.com (“TaxFile2290,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) provides information and an online service to help taxpayers prepare and electronically file IRS Form 2290 (Heavy Vehicle Use Tax). This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have. By using our website or service, you agree to this Policy.
Information we collect
- Account information — when you create an account or sign in, we collect your name, email address, phone number, and a password (or, if you use Google sign-in, the basic profile information Google shares: your name and email address).
- Filing information — details you provide to prepare a Form 2290, such as your business name, Employer Identification Number (EIN), address, vehicle identification numbers (VINs), taxable gross weight, and tax-period details.
- Payment information — when you pay a service fee, your card or bank details are collected and processed by our payment providers (Authorize.net and/or PayPal). For IRS payment by Electronic Funds Withdrawal, your bank routing/account numbers are transmitted to the IRS as part of your return.
- Communications — messages you send us through forms or email.
- Technical data — IP address, browser type, device information, and usage data collected automatically, including through cookies and security tools such as Google reCAPTCHA.
How we use your information
- To create and manage your account and authenticate sign-in.
- To prepare, validate, and electronically submit your Form 2290 to the IRS and return your stamped Schedule 1.
- To process service-fee payments and send receipts.
- To send transactional emails (for example, welcome, confirmation, status, and support messages) via our email provider, Brevo, from [email protected].
- To protect the service against fraud and abuse, including bot detection via Google reCAPTCHA.
- To respond to your inquiries and provide customer support.
- To comply with legal and tax-filing obligations.
How we share information
We do not sell your personal information. We share it only as needed to provide the service:
- The IRS — to electronically file your Form 2290 and retrieve your Schedule 1.
- Payment processors — Authorize.net and PayPal, to process service-fee payments.
- Service providers — such as Brevo (email delivery) and Google (sign-in and reCAPTCHA), who process data on our behalf.
- Legal — when required by law, subpoena, or to protect our rights and users.
Cookies & similar technologies
We use cookies and similar technologies to keep you signed in, remember your session, secure the service, and understand usage. Google reCAPTCHA collects hardware and software information to distinguish humans from bots; its use is subject to Google’s Privacy Policy and Terms of Service. You can control cookies through your browser settings, though some features may not work without them.
Data retention
We retain filing records and related information for as long as needed to provide the service and to meet legal, tax, and recordkeeping requirements. You may request deletion of your account information, subject to records we are required to keep.
Security
We use administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect your information, and payment data is handled by PCI-compliant processors. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Your choices & rights
- You can review and update your account details (email, phone, password) from your account page.
- You can opt out of non-essential emails using the unsubscribe link or by contacting us.
- Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, or delete your personal information. Contact us to make a request.
Children’s privacy
Our service is intended for businesses and adults; it is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their information.
Changes to this Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will post the updated version here with a new effective date.
