Kept calculates tax estimates in your browser. Sign in to see your personalized estimates and open your saved plan on another device.

Your plan

You can answer the planning questions before signing in. The answers stay in the open tab until you sign in and save them to your Kept account. Kept stores your saved planning inputs and completed moves in Amazon Web Services (AWS). Your inputs can include filing status, state, income, deductions, and information about retirement accounts. Kept uses those inputs to calculate estimates and show your progress.

Account information

Amazon Cognito handles email sign-up, sign-in, and password recovery. It stores the email address and account credentials used to authenticate you. Kept uses the account identifier to retrieve the right plan. Your browser stores sign-in information and display preferences such as your color theme.

If you choose Google sign-in, Google shares your account identifier, email address and basic profile information with Amazon Cognito. Kept uses this information for sign-in and to associate your plan with your account. Kept does not ask for access to Gmail, Drive or Calendar and does not send Google your planning inputs.

Service providers and support

Kept uses AWS to host the site, provide authentication and store saved plans. Google participates when you choose Google sign-in. Kept keeps operational logs for troubleshooting and does not use advertising or analytics trackers. If you email us, we use the address and message you provide to respond to your request.

Kept counts page requests from server logs that record the request time, method, page path and response status. These traffic logs are kept for seven days.

Export, reset and deletion

Use Export in the app to download a JSON copy of your plan. Use Reset to clear your saved planning inputs and completed moves from your account. Previous plan data may remain temporarily in backups used for disaster recovery. Your account remains available after a plan reset. To request account deletion or ask a privacy question, email contact@kepttax.com.
