What is this Sign now, save time later? Who are you sharing my info with?

TurboTax does not share any of your information.  Your privacy and security are very important to us. 

You will be asked to electronically sign at the end if you don't sign now. The "Sign now, save time later" allows you to sign the terms and conditions early, but don't worry, you can do this later if you feel more comfortable going through the program first.  If you sign it now, it just makes the filing process go a little faster at the end.

That answer doesn't sound correct.  The agreement I read says this is allowing your TurboTax info to be shared with Intuit for other purposes beyond tax prep.

I would also like more information on this.  I signed but then noticed the details about sharing my information with outside parties.  I would like to revoke this consent and sign normally.  How do I do this?

We'd love to help you complete your tax return, but need more information. Can you please clarify your question?

The real answer is, by signing this, you're letting Intuit use your tax-return information to market products to you.

 

The details:

Federal law requires this consent form be provided to you. Unless authorized by law, we cannot use your tax return information for purposes other than the preparation and filing of your tax return without your consent.

Your consent is valid for the amount of time that you specify. If you do not specify the duration of your consent, your consent is valid for one year from the date of signature.

You can choose to have us use your tax return information to personalize your tax experience with TurboTax, including showing you offers and payment options that fit your tax situation, communicating with you about non-tax products you may benefit from, and developing insights for you and others.Learn More

How does one go back and decline that?  I accidently clicked on agree.  I went back several times and cleared and started over, but with no avail.  Turbotax will not bring that question up again.  How does one change their mind and deselect the agree button once already selected.

If clearing and starting over did not repopulate the question for you, you can contact TurboTax Customer Support for assistance. 

What is the TurboTax phone number?

I did clear and start over, but it is not prompting me with the question regarding sharing of info with third parties.  I want to decline this but turbo tax will not allow me to do so.  I have been through two specialists who were not able to resolve my issue.  Is there a technical support number for Turbotax to call?  How can I resolve

this issue?
