Firelift by Atesen Software

Terms of service

Last updated 29 October 2026

These terms govern your use of Firelift (firelift.atesensoftware.com), provided by Samet Ateşen, trading as Atesen Software, Sakarya, Türkiye ("we"). By using Firelift or buying a license you accept them.

1. What Firelift does

Firelift is browser software for organisations that file US information returns. It reads files you provide (IRS Publication 1220 "FIRE" files or CSV/XLSX files in the IRIS template layout), applies checks and clean-ups based on Publication 1220, Publication 5717 and the IRS IRIS CSV template formatting guidelines, and builds CSV files for upload to the IRIS Taxpayer Portal together with a review workbook. Firelift does not transmit anything to the IRS; you upload the files yourself.

2. Free use and licenses

3. Payment

Our order process is conducted by our online reseller Paddle.com. Paddle.com is the Merchant of Record for all our orders. Paddle provides all customer service inquiries and handles returns. Prices are shown in USD. Where VAT or sales tax applies, Paddle calculates it and shows the total before you pay. Licenses are one-time payments covering 12 months and do not renew automatically.

4. Your responsibility

Firelift formats and checks data you provide. It is not tax or legal advice and does not decide what must be reported. The IRS can reject or question returns for reasons Firelift cannot check (for example name/TIN matching). You remain responsible for reviewing the files and the issues list, for your IRS filing and for meeting deadlines.

5. Availability and changes

We may improve, change or discontinue features. A license keeps its download access for its 12-month term, including updates for IRIS template changes published in that term. Files you downloaded remain yours.

6. Liability

To the extent the law allows, our total liability for any claim relating to Firelift is limited to the amount you paid for the license in the 12 months before the claim. We are not liable for indirect or consequential loss, including penalties imposed by a tax authority or lost profit. Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law.

7. Refunds

See the refund policy: 14-day money-back guarantee.
