Privacy Policy

Effective date: May 2, 2026

This Privacy Policy describes how The Accountant Nasir (“we”, “me”, “my practice”) collects, uses, stores, and protects personal information when you visit https://theaccountantnasir.com or engage accounting services remotely.

Who we are

Independent professional services operated by Nasir Bilal. Privacy inquiries: nasirbilal01@gmail.com.

Information we collect

• Website inquiries: Name, email address, optional phone number, business details, industry, service preferences, bookkeeping platform selections, and free-text messages submitted via the contact form or email.
• Operational correspondence: Emails, calendar invitations, messaging logs (including WhatsApp when you choose that channel), and files you voluntarily share for scoping.
• Engagement materials: During paid work you may share financial statements, invoices, payroll summaries, tax IDs where strictly necessary, credentials for accounting platforms (handled via secure channels — avoid emailing passwords).
• Technical metadata: Basic server logs from hosting providers (IP address, browser type, timestamps). Enable analytics only after reviewing vendor privacy practices.

How we use information

• Respond to inquiries and schedule consultations.
• Deliver contracted bookkeeping, accounting, migration, or advisory deliverables.
• Maintain billing records where applicable.
• Comply with lawful requests where legally compelled.

We do not sell your personal information.

Financial & confidential data during engagements

Client books often contain sensitive financial data. Treatments include restricted access, encrypted communications where available, disciplined folder hygiene, and optional non-disclosure commitments aligned with engagement letters. Third-party processors (QuickBooks, Xero, payroll vendors, receipt apps) operate under their own terms — we select workflows intended to minimize unnecessary duplication of credentials or exports.

Cookies & analytics

By default this static site avoids intrusive cookies. If you enable Google Analytics, Plausible, or similar tools in production, update this section with vendor names, cookie categories, retention periods, and opt-out guidance. Essential cookies tied purely to hosting/CDN functionality should remain narrowly described.

Retention

Inquiry emails typically retain long enough to evaluate fit plus ordinary business archival periods. Engagement working papers retention follows jurisdictional guidance and contractual agreements — commonly multi-year spans for tax-supporting documents unless you request earlier deletion compatible with legal obligations.

International transfers

Services operate remotely across regions including the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, United Arab Emirates, and beyond. Communications may transit servers worldwide depending on platforms used (email providers, accounting SaaS). Using the site or engaging services acknowledges pragmatic international routing inherent to cloud tooling.

Your rights

• Request access to personal information maintained about you.
• Request corrections when details are inaccurate.
• Request deletion where retention is no longer necessary — subject to legal recordkeeping duties.
• Withdraw marketing consent — note this practice rarely sends promotional bulk mail.

Submit requests via nasirbilal01@gmail.com.

Children

This site is not directed at individuals under 16, and bookkeeping services are not marketed to minors.
