If you currently subscribe to Thomson Reuters Westlaw products, you may or may not be aware that you have a Pay-Per-View option.
What is Pay-Per-View (PPV)?
PPV allows you to view content not covered by your subscriptions and you will be charged a transaction fee each time you...
How long do I have access to a document?
A user can access the same document within the same session (ie; staying logged into their platform) as many times as they would like.
What if I log out and end my session?
Once the session has ended, the user has the ability to access most documents from within their History tab (located on the top bar of your platform for Westlaw UK, TR Westlaw and New Westlaw ANZ) until 3:00 AM AEST. For more information on using the History function, click here.
Is there any way to extend my access to a document I have accessed through PPV?
Using the save to folder function in Westlaw UK, TR Westlaw and New Westlaw ANZ will allow the user to retain access to most documents for 365 days. PDFs are excluded in this rule.
For more information on using the Folder function, click here.
How long do I have access to a PDF attachment?
A user can access the same PDF attachment within the same session as many times as they would like. Once that session is ended and the user wants to access the same PDF again, they will be charged even if the PDF is saved in history or/and folders.
If you are subscribed to U.S. dockets in Westlaw Classic, docket PDFs are charged each time you click on the link.
If you subscribe to Thomson Reuters Westlaw, you can check underlying databases for your subscriptions in the application. For Westlaw UK and New Westlaw, please contact Customer Care on 1300 304 195.
Thomson Reuters Westlaw offers My Content feature to check a list of your organisation's subscription.
Pay-Per-View(PPV) allows you to view content not covered by your subscriptions and you will be charged a transaction fee each time you view a document.
With your annual subscriptions you have unlimited access to content inside your subscription. With PPV, you have immediate access to content outside of your subscriptions on a document-by-document basis.
If content is not covered by your subscription, it will be identified with the "out of plan" sash as below. As soon as you click on a document that is outside of your subscription, a pop up will appear requiring you to accept the PPV charge before you can proceed to the document.
If you notice that users in your organisation are accessing the same PPV content on a regular basis, please contact your Account Manager to discuss if an annual subscription might be more cost effective.
Most international products are available via Pay Per View. There are some exceptions though. When you click on a document with the 'out of plan' sash, a pop up will appear stating that either "the content is not authorised under your subscription agreement" or "you will need to contact your Account Manager to access this content". Depending on commercial and geographical content restrictions, ANZ based users may or may not be able to subscribe to these products.
If you have more questions, please contact Customer Care on 1300 304 195 or email us via care.anz@thomsonreuters.com.
