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.

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.
