WHERE DO YOU STORE PERSONAL INFORMATION?

As described above, we are a global organization, so your personal information
may be transferred outside of your home country and may be stored in and
accessed from multiple countries, including the United States. When you interact
with us, you authorize us to transfer your personal information outside of your
home country, and you acknowledge the risk that we may transfer your personal
information to countries that may provide less protection than your home
country’s privacy laws, and we may not be able to prevent government authorities
in some countries from accessing your personal information.

For individuals located in the European Union, the United Kingdom, and
Switzerland, please see our European Data Privacy Framework Supplemental
Statement for how we transfer your personal data to the United States.

Back to top




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
the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee its
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 in our Services, and any transmission of personal information
is at your own risk.

Back to top




HOW LONG DO YOU RETAIN PERSONAL INFORMATION?

We retain personal information as required by our enterprise records retention
schedule, which varies by Service, business function, country, record classes,
and record types. We calculate the retention period based upon the time the
personal information is needed to fulfill the purposes described in this Privacy
Statement; meet the timelines required or recommended by regulators,
professional bodies, or associations; comply with applicable laws, legal holds,
and other legal obligations, including contractual obligations; and comply with
your requests.

We take steps to permanently destroy any biometric data we maintain within the
applicable timeframe specified by law or when it is no longer necessary to
achieve the purpose for which it was collected or obtained, whichever occurs
first. Initial purposes for collection may end, for example, when:

 * The individual’s identification has been verified
 * The individual’s employment is terminated
 * The individual last interacts with or cancels their account for the Service
   that uses biometric data
 * The contract that permitted the collection and use expires or is terminated
 * The consent that permitted the collection and use is withdrawn

Back to top




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 withdraw consent — when we process your personal data based on your
   consent — without affecting the lawfulness of processing based on consent
   before its withdrawal. 
 * Right to confirm we process your personal information and, if so, to access —
   including, where possible, in a portable format — correct, complete, and
   delete your personal information. 
 * Right to restrict or object to the processing of certain personal
   information, including, where relevant, the right to opt out of our
   processing of your sensitive personal information and opt out of automated
   decision making or profiling that produces a legal or similarly significant
   effect. 
 * Right to opt out of marketing emails from us, in which you may email us or
   click the unsubscribe link at the bottom of each email that you receive from
   us.
 * Residents of certain U.S. states may also have the right to opt out of the
   use of their personal information for profiling or targeted advertising,
   including online behavioral advertising, and to opt out of the sale or
   sharing of their personal information, in which you may, in addition to the
   below, click the “Do not sell or share my personal information/limit the use
   of my sensitive personal information” link or change the cookie settings
   through our cookie banners. 

California residents may have the rights as described in our California
Statement and requests for our Public Records Products can be submitted as
described in our Public Records Privacy Statement.

To submit a request, you can contact us through our Data Subject Rights Portal,
email us at privacy.issues@thomsonreuters.com, or call us at 866-633-7656.

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
applicable data protection laws. Please consult your local data protection laws
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 or
attorney general if you are not satisfied with our responses to your requests or
how we manage your personal information. However, we encourage you to contact us
first so we can address your concerns directly. Please note the following
information:

 * In Argentina, the Agency for Access to Public Information, in its capacity as
   the supervisory authority of Law No. 25,326, has the power to deal with
   complaints and claims filed by those affected in their rights for breach of
   the regulations in force regarding the protection of personal data.
 * In South Africa, you may file a complaint with the Information Regulator via
   email at PAIAComplaints@inforegulator.org.za.
 * In the European Union, supervisory authorities and their contact information
   may be found at https://edpb.europa.eu/about-edpb/about-edpb/members_en.

consumers may have under the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018, as amended
by the California Privacy Rights Act of 2020 (CCPA/CPRA) where we act as a

California Statement, we are using that term as CCPA/CPRA defines it, which
generally means information that identifies, relates to, describes, is capable
of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly,

include publicly available, deidentified, or aggregate consumer information,

specific categories that are defined in CCPA/CPRA. The type of personal
information we collect and how we handle that personal information, including if

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: 
   * The categories of personal information we collected about you 
   * The categories of sources from which the personal information is collected 
   * The business or commercial purpose for collecting, selling, or sharing
     personal information 
   * The categories of third parties to whom we disclose personal information 
   * The specific pieces of personal information we have collected about you
 * Right to access — which may include a portable copy — correct, complete, or
   delete specific pieces of personal information we hold about you.
 * 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. 
 * Right to opt out of the sharing of personal information, as sharing is
   defined under CCPA/CPRA.
 * Right not to receive discriminatory treatment for exercising your rights
   under CCPA/CPRA.
 * Additionally, California Civil Code Section 1798.83 may permit you the right
   to request information regarding the personal information about you we
   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
emailing us at privacy.issues@thomsonreuters.com, or by calling us at
866-633-7656. Requests to opt out of the sale and sharing of personal
information can also be submitted by clicking this “Do not sell or share my
personal information and limit the use of my sensitive personal information”
link. See our Cookie Policy for more information on exercising your rights.

Please provide us with enough information to verify your identity. We will use
the 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 a copy of your driver’s license or a recent
utility or credit card bill. You can designate an agent to make a request on
your behalf by either 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 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. 

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 that they have been granted to
you and apply to you under CCPA/CPRA. Please consult CCPA/CPRA to determine
which 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 with the California Attorney
General if you are not satisfied with our responses to your requests or how we
manage your personal information. However, we encourage you to contact us first
so we can address your concerns directly.

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 (“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 text files placed on browsers, computers, and other devices to
hold data. Web beacons, tags, pixels, embedded scripts, and other tracking
technologies temporarily download pieces of code to remember information about
website users and usage. Cookies and other tracking technologies are commonly
used to identify users, remember their preferences, track their browsing
activities, perform analytics on the use of our Services, and enable targeted
advertising based on their online behavior.

These Tracking Technologies may be operated and set by us (“first-party
trackers”) or by our third-party business partners, such as social media
networks, advertising networks, and content providers (“third-party trackers”).
They 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 providing
our Services or delivering content and allowing 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. We may also use these technologies to
collect information about your online activities over time and across devices,
third-party websites, or other online services.


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 your browser's
options or preferences menu. Flash cookies can only be deleted within Adobe
Flash rather than via your browser; 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 that integrate with 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
is 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, wherein 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. If you have any questions about an advertisement or
other targeted content, you should contact the responsible provider directly.


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 with any of the following:

 * The Digital Advertising Alliance (DAA), in which you may opt out of IBA using
   this DAA tool 
 * 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
 * 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 or sharing of that
advertising identifier. You can also reset the advertising identifier or 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 which options are available to you. For more details
on your choices regarding the 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.

We last updated this Cookie & IBA Statement on April 8, 2024.

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, treatises, 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 or typographical errors and format changes in compliance
with editorial house styles and except as directed by the 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, Thomson Reuters is not the source of the information content, and
we are 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; 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.

We last updated this Informational Content Privacy Statement on April 8, 2024.
