This product is currently in beta. As an active development stage, you may encounter breaking changes, incomplete features, or unexpected behaviour. We appreciate your patience and feedback.
TaxHILFE uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on our website. This Cookie Policy explains what cookies we use, why, and how you can manage them. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow the site to remember your actions and preferences (such as login status or language) for a period of time so you do not have to re-enter them when you navigate between pages. Some cookies are deleted when you close your browser (session cookies); others remain on your device for a set period (persistent cookies).
Our Consent Approach
When you first visit TaxHILFE, a cookie banner is displayed at the bottom of the screen. By clicking "Accept All Cookies", you consent to the use of all cookies described in this policy, including analytics cookies that require consent under §25 TTDSG and GDPR Art. 6(1)(a).
Essential cookies (session management, security, authentication, and UI preferences) do not require consent as they are strictly necessary for the platform to function (§25(2) TTDSG). These are set regardless of your choice. You can withdraw your consent for analytics cookies at any time by contacting [email protected].
