We're asking for your tax data.
Here's what happens to it.

EasyTax connects to HMRC and, optionally, to your bank. That is a lot to ask of a company you have not heard of. This page sets out exactly what we store, what we cannot do, who we are, and where we currently stand with HMRC — including the parts that are not finished.

Where we are with HMRC

EasyTax is built directly against HMRC's Making Tax Digital APIs and is fully working against HMRC's sandbox environment. We are currently going through HMRC's production approval process, which every MTD software vendor must complete before it can send live submissions.

You can create an account, connect HMRC and set everything up today.

Signing up is free and takes no card details.

Live submissions to HMRC are not enabled until production approval completes.

We would rather tell you this up front than have you find out after handing over your details. Add your email below and we will write to you the day filing opens.

What we do with your data

Your Government Gateway password never reaches us

Connecting HMRC sends you to HMRC's own sign-in page. You authorise EasyTax there and we receive an access token — never your password.

Bank access is read-only

Open Banking connections are made through Plaid and are read-only by design. We can see transactions to categorise expenses. We cannot move money, and neither can anyone who compromises our account.

Encrypted in transit and at rest

Traffic runs over TLS, data is encrypted at rest, and HMRC access tokens are stored encrypted. Full detail is in our Privacy Policy.

Your NINO is used for one thing

Your National Insurance number identifies you to HMRC when we retrieve your obligations. It is not used for marketing and not shared with third parties.

Nothing is filed without you

Every submission to HMRC is one you review and approve. EasyTax does not file on your behalf in the background.

You can have it deleted

Under UK GDPR you can ask us to erase your data where we have no legal obligation to keep it. Email privacy@easytax.vip.

Something useful, before you trust us with anything

No account, no card, no bank connection. Tell us your qualifying income and we'll email you your Making Tax Digital dates — and, once, the day HMRC approval completes and filing opens.

Qualifying income is gross self-employment turnover plus gross property income, before expenses. We use it once to work out your dates — no account needed.

We also publish how our tax guides are written and checked, including which ones no one has reviewed yet.
