We use personal information to provide and improve Services and for other purposes that are in our legitimate interests, as well as for compliance purposes. Further information is set out below.\n\nSome laws require us to explain our lawful reason for processing your personal information. We process personal information about you on the basis that it is:\n\n  * necessary for the performance of a contract: where we have a contract with you, we will process your personal information in order to fulfil that contract (i.e., to provide you with Services)\n  * in our or a third parties’ legitimate interests: details of those legitimate interests are set out in more detail below (e.g., provision of Services that we are contractually obliged by a third party, such as your employer or our subscriber, to deliver to you)\n  * where you give us your consent: we only ask for your consent in relation to specific uses of personal information where we need to and, if we need it, we will collect it separately and make it clear that we are asking for consent\n  * for compliance with a legal obligation (e.g., to respond to a court order or a regulator)\n\n\n\nYou are welcome to contact us for further information on the legal grounds that we rely on in relation to any specific processing of your personal information.  \n\n\nWe use personal information for a number of legitimate interests, including to provide and improve Services, administer our relationship with you and our business, for marketing and in order to exercise our rights and responsibilities. More detailed information about these legitimate interests is set out below.\n\n  * to set up and administer your account, provide technical and customer support and training, verify your identity, and send important account, subscription and Service information\n  * to administer our relationship with you, our business and our third-party providers (e.g., to send invoices)\n  * to deliver and suggest tailored content such as news, research, reports and business information. We analyze the way you use our Services to make suggestions to you for features or Services that we believe you will also be interested in, and so that we can make our Services more user-friendly\n  * to personalize your experience with our Services. We may retain your browsing and usage information to make your searches within our Services more relevant and use those insights to target advertising to you online on our websites and apps. Your choices in relation to marketing are explained here.  \nWe may sometimes share your personal information across our Services so that we can make all of the Services we deliver to you more intuitive (e.g., rather than requiring you to enter the same data many times)\n  * to contact you in relation to, and conduct, surveys or polls you choose to take part in and to analyze the data collected for market research purposes\n  * to display information you choose to post, share, upload or make available in chat rooms, messaging services, and community and event forums (including in community and event profiles) and for related collaboration, peer connection, games and information exchange\n  * to provide any third party, who has made our Services available to you (e.g., your employer or our subscriber), insights about use of the Services\n  * for internal research and development purposes and to improve, test and enhance the features and functions of our Services\n  * to provide you with marketing as permitted by law\n  * to meet our internal and external audit requirements, including our information security obligations (and if your employer or our subscriber provides for your access to our Services, to meet their internal and external audit requirements)\n  * to enforce our terms and conditions\n  * to protect our rights, privacy, safety, networks, systems and  property, or those of other persons\n  * for the prevention, detection or investigation of a crime or other breach of law or requirement, loss prevention or fraud\n  *  to comply with requests from courts, law enforcement agencies, regulatory agencies, and other public and government authorities, including where they are outside your country of residence\n  * in order to exercise our rights, and to defend ourselves from claims and to comply with laws and regulations that apply to us or third parties with whom we work\n  * in order to participate in, or be the subject of, any sale, merger, acquisition, restructure, joint venture, assignment, transfer or other disposition of all or any portion of our business, assets or stock (including in connection with any bankruptcy or similar proceedings)\n\n\n\nWhere we rely on legitimate interests as a lawful ground for processing your personal information, we balance those interests against your interests, fundamental rights and freedoms. For more information on how this balancing exercise has been carried out, please contact our Privacy Team. \n\nWe deliver marketing and event communications to you across various platforms such as email, telephone, text messaging, direct mail and online. Where required by law, we will ask you to explicitly opt in to receive marketing from us. If we send you a marketing communication it will include instructions on how to opt out of receiving these communications in the future. \n\nHonoring your marketing preferences is important to us. You have the right to opt out of receiving direct marketing and targeted online advertising.  \n\n\nHow to Opt Out of Email Marketing\n\nWhere we send marketing emails, we provide unsubscribe options for your use within our emails. To update your email marketing preferences, please visit the applicable email preference center, a link to which will normally be included in emails you receive from us. In addition, you can also use the “Contact Us” feature of a particular Service, discuss with your Thomson Reuters contact or contact our Privacy Team.\n\nEven if you opt out of receiving marketing communications by email, we may still send you service communications or important transactional information related to your accounts and subscriptions (for purposes such as providing customer support).\n\nInterest-based advertising (IBA)\n\nInterest-based advertising (IBA) allows us to deliver targeted advertising to users of our Services. IBA works by showing you advertisements, or sending you marketing emails, that are based on the type of content you access or read. For example, as you browse our Services, one of the cookies placed on your device will be an advertising cookie so we can better understand what sort of pages or content you are interested in. The information collected about your device enables us to group you with other devices that have shown similar interests. We can then display advertising to categories of users that is based on common interests. For more information about IBA, please visit: http://www.iab.net/public_policy/behavioral-advertisingprinciples.\n\nOpting out of IBA\n\nIf you want to opt out of receiving interest-based advertising, it does not mean that you will no longer receive advertising when you are using our Services. It just means that we will not use your personal information for IBA and that any advertising you see will not be customized to you. You can exercise your online advertising choices at http://optout.aboutads.info or by clicking the AdChoices icon in an ad and following the instructions.  You may also opt out of receiving interest-based ads from many sites through the Network Advertising Initiative's (NAI) Opt Out Tool (http://www.networkadvertising.org/choices) and in the EU at http://www.youronlinechoices.com/. If you delete cookies, use a different device, or change web browsers, you may need to opt out again.\n\nAdvertising on mobile devices\n\nMobile devices have an identifier that gives companies the ability to serve targeted ads to a specific mobile device. In many cases, you can turn off mobile device ad tracking or you can reset the advertising identifier at any time 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 location tracking on your mobile device. If you turn off ad tracking or location tracking, we will no longer use information collected from your device’s advertising identifier for the purposes of advertising. You may still see the same number of ads but they may be less relevant because they will not be based on your interests.  Where we need your consent to gather information about your location we will obtain this from you. \n\nWe share personal information within the Thomson Reuters group, with our business partners and third party service providers, the person providing for your access to our Services (if that is not you) and in accordance with law.

The use of cookies and other tracking technologies is standard across websites and apps through which information is collected about your online activities across applications, websites, or other services. More information about how we use cookies and similar technologies and how you can control and manage them is below.\n\nWhat is a cookie?  \n\n\nA cookie is a small text file that is placed on a computer or other device and is used to identify the user or device and to collect information. Cookies are typically assigned to one of four categories, depending on their function and intended purpose: absolutely necessary cookies, performance cookies, functional cookies, and cookies for marketing purposes.\n\nTypes of cookies and why we use them\n\nAbsolutely necessary cookies: These cookies are essential to enable you to move around a website and use its features. Without these cookies, Services you have asked for, like adding items to an online shopping cart, cannot be provided.\n\nPerformance cookies: These cookies collect information about how you use our websites. Information collected includes, for example, the Internet browsers and operating systems used, the domain name of the website previously visited, the number of visits, average duration of visit, and pages viewed. These cookies only collect information in an aggregated format. Performance cookies are used to improve the user-friendliness of a website and enhance your experience.\n\nFunctionality cookies: These cookies allow the website to remember choices you make (such as your username or ID, language preference, or the area or region you are in) and provide enhanced, more personal features. These cookies can also be used to remember changes you have made to text size, fonts, and other customizable parts of web pages. They may also be used to provide Services you have asked for, such as watching a video or commenting on a blog. These cookies cannot track your browsing activity on other websites.\n\nTargeting and advertising cookies: These cookies track browsing habits and are used to deliver targeted (interest-based) advertising. They are also used to limit the number of times you see an ad and to measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns. They remember that you have visited a website and this information is shared with other organizations, such as advertisers.\n\nManaging cookies\n\nYou can manage website cookies in your browser settings, and you always have the choice to change these settings by accepting, rejecting, or deleting cookies. If you choose to change your settings, you may find that certain functions and features will not work as intended on the Services. All browser settings are slightly different, so to manage cookies, you should refer to the relevant settings within your browser.\n\nWe understand that you may want to know more about cookies. Here are some useful resources that provide detailed information about types of cookies, how they are used, and how you can manage your cookie preferences: www.aboutcookies.org  or www.allaboutcookies.org.

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: http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager.html.\n  * Web beacons: Our web pages may contain electronic images known as web beacons (also called single-pixel gifs and transparent graphic images) that we use to help deliver cookies on our sites, count users who have visited those sites, deliver Services, and analyze the effectiveness of our promotional campaigns, for example. We may also include web beacons in our marketing email messages or newsletters to determine whether an email is opened or if links are clicked. Web beacons are also used to deliver you interest-based advertising.\n  * Web server & application logs: Our servers automatically collect certain information to help us administer and protect the Services, analyze usage, and improve users’ experience. The information collected includes:\n    * IP address and browser type\n    * Device information including Unique Device Identifier (UDID), MAC address, Identifier For Advertisers (IFA), and similar identifiers we or others may assign\n    * Device operating system and other technical facts\n    * The city, state, and country from which you access our website\n    * Pages visited and content viewed, stored, and purchased\n    * Information or text entered\n    * Links and buttons clicked\n    * URLs visited before and after you use our Services\n\n\n\n“Do Not Track” Signals\n\nSome browsers transmit Do Not Track (DNT) signals to websites. Due to the lack of a common interpretation of DNT signals throughout the industry, we do not currently alter, change, or respond to DNT requests or signals from these browsers. We continue to monitor industry activity in this area and reassess our DNT practices as necessary.\n\nConnecting via social networks\n\nSome of our Services may include social networking features, such as the Facebook® “Like” button and widgets, “Share” buttons, and interactive mini-programs. Additionally, you may choose to use your own social networking logins from, for example, Facebook or LinkedIn®, to log into some of our Services. If you choose to connect using a social networking or similar service, we may receive and store authentication information from that service to enable you to log in and other information that you may choose to share when you connect with these Services. These Services may collect information such as the web pages you visited and IP addresses, and may set cookies to enable features to function properly. We are not responsible for the security or privacy of any information collected by these third parties. You should review the privacy statements or policies applicable to the third-party services you connect to, use, or access. If you do not want your personal information shared with your social media account provider or other users of the social media service, please do not connect your social media account with your account for the Services and do not participate in social sharing on the Services.\n\nThis Statement generally relates to the personal information we collect about users in connection with the Services, where we make decisions about how that personal information is handled (Thomson Reuters as a controller). However, you can click on “Learn More” below for more information about how we process personal information that our customers input into our Services and for which Thomson Reuters does not make decisions about (Thomson Reuters as a processor).\n\nWhere we need to give you additional information about how your personal information is used in relation to specific Services we will provide separate or additional privacy notices.\n\nYour professional service provider (e.g., your financial, tax, legal or accounting adviser) and other third parties may enter your personal information into Services we make available to, and host for them on their behalf. They may provide their own privacy notices to you. You should contact them for these notices, and you may also be able to find their privacy notices on their websites.\n\nUse of Publicly Available Data within Our Services  \n\n\nMany professionals and third parties rely on the use of publicly available information in order to carry out research (e.g., on case law) or to satisfy their compliance obligations (e.g., to carry out anti-money-laundering checks).\n\nTo assist them, we make available information obtained from publicly available sources like public websites, open government databases or other data in the public domain (some of which is behind a paywall and some not).\n\nWe take privacy seriously and put in place measures designed to ensure that we process personal information in a proportionate way and in compliance with data protection laws.   \n\nWhere we process non-sensitive personal information within those Services, it is normally processed because it is in our or a third parties’ legitimate interests to do so. In the limited circumstances where we process sensitive personal information, we normally do so where:\n\n  * necessary in relation to obligations under employment, social security and social protection law\n  * personal information has been manifestly made public by the person to whom it relates\n  * necessary for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims or whenever courts are acting in their judicial capacity\n  * processing is necessary for reasons of substantial public interest, on the basis of applicable law\n\n\n\nWe put in place appropriate measures to protect your information where it is transferred internationally, to secure it and to ensure it is retained only for a reasonable period. \n\nIf you would like to make further enquiries about how personal information is used within a specific Service, please contact our Privacy Team. \n\nTo provide you with additional context on other products and services we offer, we have provided below more information regarding certain data protection practices in our Legal and Tax & Accounting businesses.\n\nLegal Products and Services  \n\n\nOur global Legal business provides research and business management and efficiency tools to the legal profession, often processing personal information that our users input into the Services. For example, if a law firm uses our firm management Services, they may record personal information when using those Services and they may ask us to hold or access it on their behalf (e.g., to provide software/Service support).   \n\n\nThomson Records Legal public records products include the CLEAR suite of products and public records data on Westlaw, including PeopleMap and Company Investigator.

Where we act as a service provider in regard to the personal or confidential information that our customers or users input into our Legal Services, we do so in accordance with permissible law and we do not use any such information other than to provide, administer and improve our Services, provide user support or to meet our legal obligations.\n\nTax & Accounting Products and Services  \n\n\nOur global Tax & Accounting business provides tools that support tax and accounting professionals. These Services typically process personal information on behalf of our customers when they use our Services.  This may include sensitive personal information such as information that could determine a person’s race, ethnicity, sexual orientation and/or health status. For example, if an accountant uses our  tax and accounting software, they may use it to process information about individuals and they may ask us to hold or access that information on their behalf (e.g., when providing software/Service support).  \n\n\nIf you would like to find out more about the personal information held by your accountant or tax professional, please contact them directly.   \n\n\nIf you have any questions, comments, complaints or suggestions in relation to data protection or this Statement, or any other concerns about the way in which we process information about you, please contact our Privacy Team at privacy.enquiries@tr.com or at Privacy Team, Thomson Reuters, 30 South Colonnade-Canary Wharf, London E14 5EP, United Kingdom.\n\nIf you are not satisfied with the response, we encourage you to escalate your query to our Data Protection Officer at dpprivacyofficer@tr.com or at Data Protection Officer, Thomson Reuters, 30 South Colonnade-Canary Wharf, London E14 5EP, United Kingdom.  \n\n\nAdditionally, if you wish to locate a Thomson Reuters office, please see https://www.thomsonreuters.com/en/locations.html.\n\nFiling a Complaint.
