"Do not sell or share my personal information and limit the use of my sensitive personal informationExcerpt from Thomson Reuters's Terms
(1) REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: This provision directly engages the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), enforced by the California Privacy Protection Agency (CPPA) and the California Attorney General. The reference to both 'do not sell or share' and 'limit the use of sensitive personal information' reflects CPRA-specific obligations that came into effect on January 1, 2023. (2) GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: Medium. The presence of the opt-out link satisfies a threshold CPRA disclosure requirement, but the full compliance posture cannot be assessed from this document alone; the operationally complete disclosure requires review of the Privacy Statement. The absence of specific data category descriptions within these terms leaves open questions about what data practices users are opting out of. (3) JURISDICTION FLAGS: This mechanism is directed at California residents as the primary beneficiary population. Other U.S. state privacy laws, including the Virginia Consumer Data Protection Act, Colorado Privacy Act, and similar frameworks, may impose analogous opt-out rights that are not explicitly addressed by this provision. (4) CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: Vendors and data partners who receive Thomson Reuters site visitor data as part of advertising, analytics, or other sharing arrangements may be subject to this opt-out election, though the specific data sharing arrangements are not disclosed in this document. (5) COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: Compliance teams should verify that the opt-out mechanism is fully functional, that opt-out signals are honored across all downstream data sharing arrangements, and that the Privacy Statement accurately describes the categories of personal and sensitive personal information subject to this provision. Organizations subject to CPRA in their own right should assess whether their vendor relationship with Thomson Reuters requires updated data processing or service provider agreements.
