Cookie Policy

What cookies we use, why, and how you stay in control.

Last updated: 24 July 2026. This policy sits alongside our Privacy Policy and explains how we use cookies under UK GDPR and the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR).

What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files a website stores on your device. Some are essential for the site to work; others help us understand how the site is used or power optional features like an embedded map.

How we handle consent

When you first visit, we show a banner giving you equal choices to Accept all, Reject non-essential, or Manage preferences. Nothing beyond strictly-necessary cookies is set until you tell us it's okay. We use Google Consent Mode, which defaults every non-essential category to “denied” until you consent.

You can change your mind whenever you like using the button (also in the footer and the small tab in the corner).

Managing cookies in your browser

You can also block or delete cookies through your browser settings. Doing so may stop some parts of the site from working as intended. Guides are available for Chrome, Firefox, Safari and Edge.

Changes

If we add or change cookies, we'll update this page and, where the change is significant, ask for your consent again.

In our clients' words

Relationships that outlast the tax year

We came to HK Accountax mid-panic before a VAT deadline and left with a plan, a proper system, and a lot less dread. Pankaj explains things without making you feel daft.
S Sarah T.
E-commerce Founder, Marlow
Switching over was painless — they sorted everything with our old accountant. Now we actually get told about tax bills in advance instead of the week they're due.
J James R.
Director, Facilities Company
My self-assessment used to eat a whole weekend. Now I send my figures over and it's done properly, on time, with reliefs I didn't even know I could claim.
A Aisha K.
Freelance Consultant, High Wycombe
Straight-talking, quick to reply, and genuinely on our side. It feels like having a finance person in the family rather than a faceless firm.
M Mark & Lucy P.
Landlords, Buckinghamshire
They set up our company, got us on Xero, and mapped out the whole first-year compliance calendar. Exactly the steady hand a new business needs.
