I was reading this article about tax software companies sharing Tax Info with Facebook / Google:

Intuit - Your company is mentioned in the article. Is this accurate?
As stated in the article -
Rick Heineman, a spokesperson for Intuit, said the company’s pixel “does not track, gather, or share information that users enter in TurboTax while filing their taxes,” although Intuit “may share some non-tax-return information, such as username, with marketing partners to deliver a better customer experience,” like not showing Intuit ads on Facebook to people who have accounts already. The company said it’s in compliance with regulations but has modified the pixel to no longer send usernames.
Yeah I read that.
I didn't buy the software to have a "better customer experience" as they define it with whatever social media is out there for whatever reason. This is some of the most sensitive information most people have. Google and Facebook should not even be in the discussion when filing taxes.
