I won’t:
- Share your information with anyone other than CAANZ, unless you instruct me to
- Hold your records longer than I’m obligated to
- Destroy any of your information (even if you ask me to)
I will:
- Provide your new accountant (if we break up) with all the information they would need to take over your services
- Deal with any potential conflicts of interest with full transparency (like working with your ex, or a competitor, family member, you get the picture). Here’s how this works:
- My existing client must agree it’s okay for me to work for you
- Any communication between me and one person (that could impact the other person) must include the other person – no secrets
- I don’t take sides – I fire myself from both if it gets messy
