Introduction and overview
Intuit leverages technology responsibly to power prosperity around the world and we believe that everyone has a right to privacy. We also believe in providing transparency on how we collect, process and share personal information.
Scope of this Privacy Statement
This Privacy Statement (“Privacy Statement”) describes our privacy practices for individuals in the United States when we process:
a) Personal information for the purposes of preparing a tax return or in connection with the preparation of a tax return (collectively, “Tax Preparation Information”) as part of providing TurboTax tax preparation services.
b) Personal information for the purposes of providing the benefits of the Intuit platform, which is collectively, all Intuit’s services, sites, experiences and software (including through our mobile applications and desktop applications) other than Tax Preparation Data (the “Intuit Platform”); and/or
c) Personal information as necessary to manage, run and improve our business.

Our role
This Privacy Statement does not apply where Intuit processes personal information as a service provider on behalf of a customer or entity who alone or jointly with others determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal information (“Information Controller”), for example, the customers of our professional tax software products. When we act as a service provider, the privacy statement of the relevant Information Controller and our agreements with such business or entity will govern our processing of personal information.
In certain circumstances, there may be more than one Information Controller processing your information. For example, your employer or your service provider or a financial partner may also act as an Information Controller of personal information processed by Intuit. In these situations, we act as an independent Information Controller over our processing activities – meaning that we, as an Information Controller, make determinations over how your personal information will be processed independently from the other Information Controller. The other Information Controller may have their own obligations under applicable information privacy law, and you may need to speak with the other Information Controller directly for questions on how they process your personal information.

The Intuit Platform and your Intuit Account
Intuit Account information
In order to access the benefits we make available in the Intuit Platform, data entered into one service or feature becomes a part of your Intuit Account.
The personal information contained within your Intuit Account is the combination of information that Intuit has about you. Your Intuit Account includes your credentials; your name and contact details; payment information; information about your activities, your interests and preferences; the content you place in our platform; information we have collected about you from third-party sources and insights that are associated with you.
The information in your Intuit Account will be shared across the Intuit Platform to generate our various offerings, services and experiences and otherwise maximize the benefits to you of our platform.

Organizational account information
Some experiences and services within our platform allow you to interact with an organization (such as your employer or your school). If you are granted access to an organization or household account (for example, a business's account in QuickBooks), the owner of the organization or a designated administrator may control and administer details of your account, for example, by deciding your access rights; making decisions about your personal information (such as details about your payroll); or requiring you to take certain actions (for example, use location tracking to clock in for a shift). If your access rights are amended by the owner or designated administrator, then you may lose access to the information that lives in the organization.
Your use of our platform as part of an organization’s account may be subject to the organization’s policies, which may be different from this Statement. We are not responsible for the privacy or security practices of other organizations, and you should consider both the organization's policies and whether you are comfortable enabling the organization with access to your information prior to interacting with those organization’s Intuit Accounts.
