AI Usage Policy

Automated tools may assist with outlining, transcription, classification, or identifying material for further review. They are not treated as primary sources and do not independently establish tax law, IRS procedure, eligibility, deadlines, or financial outcomes.

Material claims must be checked against attributable sources such as IRS publications, forms, instructions, the Internal Revenue Manual, statutes, regulations, or official agency announcements before publication.

A human editor is responsible for published framing, source selection, clarity, corrections, and decisions about whether content is ready to publish. We do not present an automated system as a licensed tax professional.

Readers should not submit Social Security numbers, full account numbers, tax transcripts, or other sensitive tax records to public-facing site tools. We minimize collection of personal information and do not use reader submissions to create public editorial content.

AI-assisted material is subject to the same correction and fact-checking standards as other content. When automation materially shapes a published analysis or interactive experience, we disclose its role where that context would help readers evaluate the work.
