WHERE DO YOU STORE PERSONAL INFORMATION?

WHAT STEPS DO YOU TAKE TO SECURE PERSONAL INFORMATION?

We work to implement technical and organizational measures designed to protect
the security of personal information. However, no method of transmission over

absolute security. The security of your information also depends on you: you are
responsible for using unique, strong usernames and passwords for each of your
accounts, and for keeping those usernames and passwords confidential. We are not
responsible for the circumvention of any privacy settings or cybersecurity
measures contained on our Services, and any transmission of personal information
is at your own risk.

HOW LONG DO YOU RETAIN PERSONAL INFORMATION?

We retain personal information as required by our enterprise records retention

Privacy Statement, (b) meet the timelines required or recommended by regulators,
professional bodies, or associations, (c) comply with applicable laws, legal
holds, and other legal obligations (including contractual obligations), and (d)

WHAT RIGHTS DO I HAVE OVER MY PERSONAL INFORMATION?

Your local privacy laws may grant you rights with respect to your personal
information, and we will not knowingly discriminate against you because you have
exercised any of your privacy rights. These rights differ based on the local
laws that apply to you, but could include one or more of the following:


 * Right to confirm we process your personal information and, if so, to access,
   correct, complete, object to or restrict the processing of, and delete
   certain personal information we hold about you, including the rights to
   receive your personal information in a portable copy. To submit a request,

IMPORTANT: These rights are not absolutely guaranteed and there are several
exceptions where we may not have an obligation to fulfill your request. We are
only required to honor these rights to the extent we act as a controller of that
data and the requested rights have been granted and apply to you under

to determine what rights may be available to you and when access to these rights
is limited. You may appeal an adverse decision on your requests by emailing or
writing to us; and you have the right to lodge a complaint to your local
regulator if you are not satisfied with our responses to your requests or how we
manage your personal information. However, we encourage you to first contact us

update it at any time, for any reason. We will notify you of changes to our
Privacy Statement by updating the “Last Updated” date and posting the updated
Privacy Statement on this page. We may e-mail periodic reminders of our notices
and terms and conditions, but you should check our Services frequently to see
the current Privacy Statement and any changes made to it.

Statement and a version translated in another language, the English version

SUPPLEMENTAL PRIVACY STATEMENTS

Depending on the specific Service you are using or specific interactions you
have with us (such as when you apply for a job or work for us), we may provide
different or supplemental privacy statements that describe and govern how we use
your personal information. When we do so, those different or supplemental
privacy statements apply to that specific Service or those specific
interactions. Of note, please review these supplemental privacy statements:

particular consumer or household. However, personal information does not include
publicly available, deidentified, or aggregate consumer information (which are
all defined in CCPA/CPRA).

specific categories that are defined in CCPA/CPRA. The type of personal
information we collect and how we handle that personal information, including if
we share or sell that personal information, depends on how you are specifically
interacting with us and which Services you are inquiring about. In general, we

YOUR PRIVACY RIGHTS

If you are a California consumer, you may have one or more of the following
rights under CCPA/CPRA:

 * Right to confirm we process your personal information and, if so, to request
   we disclose to you: (1) the categories of personal information we collected
   about you; (2) the categories of sources from which the personal information
   is collected; (3) the business or commercial purpose for collecting, selling,
   or sharing personal information; (4) the categories of third parties to whom

 * Right to limit our use and disclosure of your sensitive personal information.

 * Right to opt-out of the sale of personal information, as sale is defined

   under CCPA/CPRA

 * Additionally, California Civil Code Section 1798.83 may permit you the right

   disclose to third parties for the third parties’ direct marketing purposes.

To make a request, you can contact us through our Data Subject Rights Portal, by

a request on your behalf by either: (1) having your agent send us a letter,
signed by you, certifying that the agent is acting on your behalf and showing
proof that they are registered with the California Secretary of State; or (2) by

COOKIE & IBA STATEMENT

This Cookie & IBA Statement supplements our Privacy Statement and specifically
explains how we and our third-party business partners deploy cookies and other
tracking technologies (which we call “Tracking Technologies”), including for
interest-based advertising (IBA), as well as the options you have to control
them.


WHAT ARE COOKIES AND OTHER TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES?

 “Cookies” are small pieces of data, stored in text files, that are stored on
your browser, computer, or other device. The cookies we use may include “flash
cookies” (or “local shared objects”) and “HTML5 cookies” that store information
on your device (outside of your browser) and are specific to content supported
by Adobe® Flash or HTML5. We and our third-party business partners may also use
other tracking technologies such as “web beacons” (also known as “tags” and
“pixels”) which are small images embedded in our Services, content, or emails,
as well as “embedded scripts” which are pieces of code that are temporarily
downloaded onto your device. These other tracking technologies are often used in
conjunction with cookies, but may be stored on your device in a different manner
from cookies so disabling cookies may not also disable these tracking
technologies.

These Tracking Technologies may be operated and set by us (known as “first party
trackers”) or by our third party business partners, such as social media
networks, advertising networks, and content providers, (known as “third party
trackers”); and can be set either for a single visit (through a “session
tracker”) so they are deleted after that visit or remain on your device to
persist for multiple repeat visits (through a “persistent tracker”).


WHY DO WE USE COOKIES AND OTHER TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES?

We use Tracking Technologies for several different purposes: these technologies
are widely used to remember you and your preferences and understand how you
interact with us so that we may perform essential functions (such as to provide
our Services or deliver content and allow users to register and remain logged
in), personalize our Services and content and ensure a quality, consistent, and
efficient experience for our users, analyze your usage of our Services and
interactions with content (including emails), and to deliver and measure
advertising (including IBA).


HOW CAN YOU CONTROL THE USE OF TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES?

You may wish to restrict the use of cookies or completely prevent them from
being set. Most modern browsers allow you to change your cookie and other
tracker settings, and you can usually find these settings in the options or
preferences menu of your browser. Flash cookies can only be deleted within Adobe
Flash rather than via your browser, and please refer to this Adobe help page for
information on how to manage Flash cookies. Additionally, you can opt-out of
Google Analytics by installing Google’s opt-out browser add-on.

You may also see a “cookie banner” on some of our Services, which allows you to
manage our use of cookies and other Tracking Technologies – click on the banner
for more information regarding which cookies are used on that particular Service
and what you may disable, but please note that you cannot disable any Tracking
Technologies that are categorized as strictly necessary.

Please be aware that some of the features of our Services may not function
correctly if you disable all cookies or other technologies.


DO YOU HONOR DO NOT TRACK SIGNALS?

Generally, we do not currently respond to, or take any action with respect to
web browser “do not track” signals; however, in some instances, our third party
business partners who integrate within our Services will honor do not track
signals.




WHAT IS INTEREST-BASED ADVERTISING?

“Interest-based advertising” (IBA) is also commonly referred to as “targeted
advertising”, “online behavioral advertising”, and “personalized advertising”,
and it generally means the delivery of personalized or targeted advertising to
you that are tailored to your specific interests and demographics. IBA may also
include analytics and reporting related to those advertisements (such as ad
measurement and attribution, segmentation, and market research).

We may send you IBA based on the use of Tracking Technologies and other
information you make available to us when you interact with our Services, our
content, and our advertisements. We engage various third party business partners
to serve you IBA and we may share with those third party business partners
certain information about you and our Tracking Technologies to do so. Some of
these third parties will deploy their own Tracking Technologies on our Services
and content when doing so, in which they automatically receive your IP address,
browser or device information, and other information from these Tracking
Technologies. Some of our third party business partners (and their business
partners) may also use or provide us with additional information about you that
they have independently collected, from offline and online sources, to better
target and provide you with more relevant and useful advertising. Some of these
third parties may collect personal information about your online activities over
time and across different websites. Please note that we do not control the
privacy practices of these third parties, and their privacy practices are not
covered by this Privacy Statement.


HOW CAN YOU OPT-OUT OF IBA?

In addition to the above, you may also be able to choose not to receive IBA from
participating companies that participate in either:

 * The Digital Advertising Alliance (DAA), in which you may opt-out of IBA using
   this DAA tool; and/or

 * The Network Advertising Initiative (NAI), in which you may opt-out of IBA
   using this NAI Opt Out Tool and, for those in the EU/EEA, this tool; and/or

 * The AppChoices App for opting out on mobile devices.

Certain mobile devices may have an advertising identifier that allows companies
to serve IBA to a specific mobile device using that identifier. Depending on
your specific device, you may be able to limit advertising, sharing of that
advertising identifier, or reset the advertising identifier, as well as choose
to turn off the device’s location tracking – including precise geolocation
tracking – on your mobile device or for certain applications. See your device
manufacturer to understand what options are available to you. For more details
on your choices regarding use of your web browsing activity for IBA you may also
visit the following sites: networkadvertising.org, optout.aboutads.info,
youradchoices.com, and youronlinechoices.eu.

Next, some of our Services may also display Do Not Sell My Personal Information
or Do Not Share My Personal Information links (or similarly named links), in
which clicking those links may allow you to opt-out of the “sharing” or
“selling” of your personal information as required by certain local privacy
laws. Doing so may limit the manner in which we and our third party business
partners may use your personal information in connection with IBA.

Please note that some of the options described above are browser-specific or
device-specific, so you may need to opt-out again if you use a different device
or change browsers. Please also note that, even if you opt-out of receiving IBA,
you may still receive advertisements and marketing materials, but they may not
be personalized to you specifically.

INFORMATIONAL CONTENT PRIVACY STATEMENT


1. INTRODUCTION

As a global business information services company, we proudly distribute
informational content within our Services. This Informational Content Privacy
Statement supplements the above Privacy Statement and further explains how we
distribute and curate this informational content as part of our Services.


2. WHY DOES THOMSON REUTERS PUBLISH INFORMATIONAL CONTENT?

Thomson Reuters publishes various types of content, such as statutes, laws,
regulations, rules, court cases, opinions, expert analysis, articles, forms,
public records, treatise, dictionaries, and many other types of information,
that we believe have professional and jurisprudential value for our customers or
the general public.


3. HOW DOES THOMSON REUTERS OBTAIN INFORMATIONAL CONTENT?

Thomson Reuters obtains informational content in a number of ways – sometimes we
purchase or license the content from others, sometimes we receive the content
pursuant to a contract where we are required to curate and distribute the
content, sometimes we commission the content ourselves, and sometimes the
content is collected from a number of public sources, like public records,
journalistic sources, and information in the public domain. Any personal
information contained in informational content that is subsequently distributed
by Thomson Reuters originates from the original text of the informational
content.


4. HOW DOES THOMSON REUTERS CURATE INFORMATIONAL CONTENT?

In addition to distributing the informational content, Thomson Reuters curates
the content – in other words, Thomson Reuters prepares and provides summaries,
metadata, or other related information concerning the original content. For
example, reported cases in our legal products might include a headnote, key
cite, and other metadata, as well as the original full-text court case. In many
cases, Thomson Reuters prepares the curation of the content. Any personal
information contained in the curation is derived from personal information
included in the original information content supplied by the source of that
content.


5. DOES THOMSON REUTERS EDIT OR CHANGE THE SUBSTANCES OF THE ORIGINAL
INFORMATION CONTENT?

Except for clerical/typographical errors and format changes in compliance with
editorial house styles and except as directed by source of the original
information content, Thomson Reuters does not edit or change the substance of
the original information content in most cases.


6. WHAT IF I WANT TO CHANGE OR DELETE MY PERSONAL INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THE
INFORMATION CONTENT OR JUST WANT THE INFORMATIONAL CONTENT REMOVED?

In many cases, we are not the source of the information content and Thomson
Reuters is not obliged to change or delete the substance of the original content
including any personal information unless we receive a verified request from the
source of the information content, such as, for example, a court order from the
court that issued the court case in the first place.

If you have any questions or concerns regarding the substance of any
informational content or your personal information as contained in that
information content, please contact the source of the informational content and
work with them directly to resolve your questions or concerns.
