Effective Date: June 2012
Last Updated: January 1, 2020

Your privacy and trust are important to us. This Privacy Statement explains how
Thomson Reuters Holdings Inc. and the Thomson Reuters group of companies (we
refer to these as “Thomson Reuters”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) collect, use, and
share your personal information in connection with the website, application
(including a mobile application), product, software, or service that links to
this Privacy Statement (we call these our “Services”).

This Privacy Statement, however, does not apply to:

 * Thomson Reuters supplemental Privacy Statement for California consumers under
   CCPA
   
 * Thomson Reuters supplemental Privacy Statement for cookie & IBA policy
   
 * Thomson Reuters supplemental Privacy Statement for content distributed with
   Thomson Reuters Services
   

 * Our customers’ “content” that is inputted/uploaded and processed, stored, or
   hosted by our customers using our Services in connection with their account
   with us, in which this personal information is governed by our customers’
   respective privacy policies;
 * The “content” that is distributed within our Services (including with respect
   to personal information included in such content), although this is addressed
   in our Informational Content Privacy Statement; or
 * Any website, application, product, software, service, or content that are
   offered by third parties or that link to their own privacy statement, privacy
   policy, or privacy notice.

Importantly, some laws (like GDPR) distinguish between a “controller” and a
“processor” (or similar terms). We note that we are a “controller” for those
Services where we make decisions on how personal information is used in
connection with our Services, and we are a “processor” for those Services where
we only use personal information as allowed by our customers.

Where we make decisions on how personal information is used in connection with
our Services (where we are acting as a controller), we are responsible for the
obligations of a “controller” under applicable laws in connection with the
processing of personal information – for example, we use this Privacy Statement
and other notices to provide you with information about our use of personal
information, as required by law. Where we only use personal information as
allowed by our customers (where we are acting as a processor), our customers are
similarly responsible for the obligations of a “controller” under applicable
laws in connection with the processing of personal information, and, if you are
using our Services through one of our customers, you should contact them if you
have questions or concerns about the processing of your personal information or
compliance with applicable laws.

For California Consumers, we have also prepared a Supplemental Privacy Statement
for California Consumers under CCPA (“California Statement”) in compliance with
the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (“CCPA”). Please review our
California Statement attached below for more information.

For our Public Records Products (such as PeopleMap, Public Records on Westlaw,
and CLEAR), please visit our supplemental Public Records Privacy Statement for
more information about the use of personal information in our Public Records
Products.

THOMSON REUTERS SUPPLEMENTAL PRIVACY STATEMENT FOR CALIFORNIA CONSUMERS UNDER
CCPA

DO NOT SELL MY PERSONAL INFORMATION



INTRODUCTION


As a global company, our business proudly serves certain natural persons
residing in the State of California (each, a “consumer”). This Supplemental
Privacy Statement for California Consumers under CCPA (“California Statement”)
explains rights that California consumers may have under the California Consumer
Privacy Act of 2018 (“CCPA”).

When we use the term “personal information” in this supplemental California
Statement, we are using that term as CCPA defines it, which CCPA generally
defines “personal information” to mean information that identifies, relates to,
describes, is capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked,
directly or indirectly, with a particular consumer or household. However,
personal information does not include publicly available, deidentified, or
aggregate consumer information (which are all defined in CCPA). Notably, the
definition of “personal information” also does not apply to the collection of
personal information from job applicants, employees – whether you are our
employee or any employee of the entity arranging access to our Services for you,
business owners, directors, officers, medical staff, or contractors.


CATEGORIES OF PERSONAL INFORMATION WE COLLECT, THE SOURCES OF THAT INFORMATION,
PURPOSES FOR WHY WE COLLECT IT, WHO WE SHARE IT WITH, AND WHETHER WE SELL THAT
PERSONAL INFORMATION


Where we act as a “business” under CCPA (meaning we determine the manner and
reasons for why we process your personal information), we may be required to
disclose additional information regarding the categories of personal information
we collect, the sources where we obtain that information, the purposes for why
we collect that information, who we share that information with, as well as
whether we sell that personal information – all of which depends on the specific
Service. Accordingly, we’ve provided additional Service-specific information for
subject Services on our website located at tr.com/privacy-information.


YOUR PRIVACY RIGHTS


If you are a resident of California and are not a job applicant,
employee/contractor, or employee/contractor of another company interacting with
us in your job role, you have the right to request what information we collect,
use, and disclose. You also have the right to request that we delete your
information.

To make a request, you can contact us through our Data Subject Rights Portal or
at 1-866-633-7656. Provide us enough information to verify your identify. We
will use information you provide to us to verify your request. If we cannot
initially verify your identity, we may request additional information to
complete the verification process, such as, for example, a copy of your driver’s
license and/or a recent utility or credit card bill. You can designate an agent
to make 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 you and the agent executing and sending us a notarized power of
attorney stating that the agent is authorized to act on your behalf.  Please
note that we may still require you to verify your identity before we process a
request submitted by your agent.

California residents also have certain rights regarding the sale of personal
information. California residents have the right to opt out of the sale of their
personal information by clicking the following link “Do Not Sell My Personal
Information” or by clicking the button above.


We will not discriminate against you because you have exercised any of your
privacy rights under the CCPA.

advertising or analytics services on the website (“third party cookies”).

Both websites and HTML emails may also contain other tracking technologies such
as “web beacons” or “pixels.” These are typically small transparent images that
provide us with statistics, for similar purposes as cookies. They are often used
in conjunction with cookies, though they are not stored on your computer in the
same way as cookies. As a result, if you disable cookies, web beacons may still
load, but their functionality will be restricted.

Flash cookies, also known as local shared objects, are designed to support
browser content supported by Adobe® Flash. They are usually used to enable ads
and video content on websites. Like other cookies, they will store information
on your device, some of which will be specific to the Flash-enabled content.
Flash cookies can only be deleted within Adobe Flash rather than via your
browser. Please refer to the following help page for information on how to
manage your privacy settings and deletion of Flash cookies:

How We Use Cookies

We use cookies for several different purposes. Some cookies are necessary for
technical reasons; some enable a personalized experience for both visitors and
registered users; and some allow the display of advertising from selected third
party networks. Some of these cookies may be set when a page is loaded, or when
a user takes a particular action on one of our Services. Many of the cookies we
use are only set if you are a registered user, while others are set whenever you
visit or use one of our Services (irrespective of whether you have an account).
For more information on the choices you have about the cookies we use, please
see Section entitled Controlling Cookies below.

Where We Place Cookies

We set cookies in a number of different locations across our services. These
locations may include:

 * Our websites (including tr.com and reuters.com) and other Services;
 * Our mobile apps;
 * The emails we send.

Types of Cookies

The bullet points below outline the types of cookies we use on our Services and
why we use them. We also provide explanations of their purpose(s).

 * Strictly Necessary. These cookies are essential for our Services to perform
   their basic functions. These include cookies that are required to allow
   registered users to authenticate and perform account related functions, as
   well as to save the contents of virtual “carts” for e-commerce functionality.
 * Analytics and Performance. Performance cookies collect information on how
   users interact with our Services, including what pages are visited most, as
   well as other analytical data. We use these details to improve how our
   Services function and to understand how users interact with our Services.
 * Functionality. These cookies are used to store preferences set by users such
   as account name, language, and location.
 * Security. We use these cookies to help identify and prevent potential
   security risks.
 * Advertising. These cookies are used to display relevant advertising to users
   who use our Services, as well as to understand and report on the efficacy of
   ads served on our Services. They track details such as the number of unique
   visitors, the number of times particular ads have been displayed, and the
   number of clicks the ads have received. They are also used to build user
   profiles, including showing you ads based on products or services you’ve
   viewed or acts you have taken on our (and other) websites and services. These
   are set by us and trusted third party networks, and are generally persistent
   in nature.
 * Third Party / Embedded Content. Services hosted by us make use of different
   third party applications and services to enhance the experience of Service
   visitors. These include social media platforms such as Facebook and Twitter
   (through the use of sharing buttons). As a result, cookies may be set by
   these third parties, and used by them to track your online activity. We have
   no direct control over the information that is collected by these cookies.



Controlling Cookies

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 settings. You
can usually find these settings in the options or preferences menu of your
browser. To understand these settings, the following links for commonly used
browsers may be helpful, or you can use the help option in your browser for more
details:

 * Cookie settings in Internet Explorer
 * Cookie settings in Firefox
 * Cookie settings in Chrome
 * Cookie settings in Safari web and iOS

If you disable cookies, please be aware that some of the features of our
Services may not function correctly.

For more details on your choices regarding use of your web browsing activity for
interest-based advertising you may visit the following sites:

 * https://thenai.org
 * optout.aboutads.info
 * youradchoices.com
 * youronlinechoices.eu

On a mobile device, you may also be to adjust your settings to limit ad
tracking.  

You can opt out of Google Analytics by installing Google’s opt-out browser
add-on.

Do Not Track Signals

Generally, we do not currently respond to, or take any action with respect to
web browser "do not track" signals or other mechanisms that provide consumers
the ability to exercise choice regarding the collection of personal information
about an individual’s online activities over time and across third party
websites or online services. However, in some instances our third party service
providers who integrate within our Services do honor Do Not Track signals.

Consent for Advertising Cookies on Our Sites

You may see a “cookie banner” on our websites. If you are visiting one of our
Services from the EU/EEA, then we do not set, or allow our ad partners to set,
cookies that are used to show you targeted ads before you click to accept. When
you consent in this manner, we and our advertising partners may set advertising
cookies on the site or other Service you are visiting and on other of our
websites, dashboards, and services. We’ll display the banner to you
periodically, just in case you change your mind.


INTEREST-BASED ADVERTISING (IBA) POLICY


Opt-Out of Email Marketing

You may choose not to receive future marketing or advertising emails from us by
clicking the unsubscribe link at the bottom of each marketing or advertising
email that you receive from us. Alternatively, you may send us an opt-out
request specifying your communications preferences to
privacy.issues@thomsonreuters.com.  

Please note that, even if you opt-out of receiving marketing or advertising
emails, we may still send you transactional emails related to the performance of
our Services or your account with us, including administrative emails,
maintenance emails, operational emails (for example, in connection with a
password reset request), and responses to any “contact” request you initiate.

We may also restart sending you marketing or advertising emails if you later
opt-in.

Interest-Based Advertising Notice

What is Interest-Based Advertising?

Interest-based advertising, sometimes referred to as “targeted advertising”,
“online behavioral advertising”, and “personalized advertising”, allows us to
deliver personalized and/or targeted advertising to individuals that are
tailored to individual interests, as well as to provide advertising-related
services such as ad delivery, reporting, attribution, analytics, and market
research. We serve interest-based advertising using information you make
available to us when you interact with our Services and other sites, content, or
products or services, which may be supplemented by third parties as discussed
below. We deliver interest-based advertising on Thomson Reuters’s owned and
operated sites, on unaffiliated sites, and through our Services.

Like other online advertising networks, we use cookies, web beacons, and other
technologies to enable us to learn about what ads you are served, what ads you
click, and other actions you take on our sites, on other sites, and sometimes
offline (collectively, “Ad Stats”). This allows us to provide you with more
useful and relevant ads.

We allow third party companies to collect certain information when you visit our
websites or use our Services. Third party advertisers and other third parties
(including ad networks, ad delivery or ad serving companies, and other service
providers they may use) may also collect information about your Ad Stats, in
which they may use that information to assume that users who interact with or
click on a personalized ad or content are part of the group that the ad or
content is directed towards. Also, some third parties may provide us with
information about you (such as the sites where you have been shown ads, your Ad
Stats, and/or demographic information) from offline and online sources that we
may use to provide you more relevant and useful advertising.

Advertisers or ad companies working on their behalf sometimes use technology to
serve the ads that appear on our sites or Services directly to your browser.
They automatically receive your IP address and/or information from cookies when
this happens. They may also use third party cookies to measure the effectiveness
of their ads and to personalize ad content. We do not have access to or control
over third party cookies or other features that advertisers and third party
sites may use, and the privacy practices of these advertisers and third party
websites are not covered by this Privacy Statement. Please contact them directly
for more information about their privacy practices.

How do I Opt-out of Interest-Based Advertising?

You may choose not to receive interest-based advertising. Please note that, even
if you opt-out of receiving interest-based advertising, you will still receive
advertisements and marketing materials, but they will not be personalized to you
specifically.

For some of our vendors that participate in the Digital Advertising Alliance
(DAA), you can exercise your online advertising choices for those vendors to
opt-out of interest-based advertising at http://optout.aboutads.info.  You may
also opt out of receiving interest-based ads from many sites through the Network
Advertising Initiative's (NAI) Opt Out Tool
(https://optout.networkadvertising.org/) and in the EU at
http://www.youronlinechoices.com/.

How Do I Opt-Out of Advertising on Mobile Devices?

Mobile devices have an advertising identifier that gives companies the ability
to serve targeted ads to a specific mobile device. Depending on your specific
device, you may be able to limit advertising or reset the advertising identifier
within your mobile device privacy settings. Another tool you can use to control
advertising on your mobile device is the AppChoices App:
http://youradchoices.com/appchoices. You may also choose to turn off the
device’s location tracking on your mobile device depending on your specific
device.

Please note that some of the options described in the paragraphs above that you
select are browser-specific or device-specific, so you may need to opt-out again
if you delete cookies, use a different device, or change browsers.

THOMSON REUTERS SERVICES


1. INTRODUCTION

As a global business information services company, our business proudly
distributes informational content within our Services. This Supplemental Privacy
Statement for Content Distributed with Thomson Reuters Services (“Informational
Content Privacy Statement”) supplements the above Privacy Statement and further
explains how we distribute and curate this informational content.


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 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.
