The answer is different in the United States versus the United Kingdom. In the US, a trillion is 10^12 = 1,000,000,000,000, or a million million, and it has twelve zeroes. In the UK, a trillion is 10^18 = 1,000,000,000,000,000,000, and it has eighteen zeroes. If you have an international audience, you should avoid using the term "one trillion," and instead refer to "ten to the twelfth power" or "ten to the eighteenth power" as appropriate.
