that includes vs which includes

Both phrases are correct, but they are used in different contexts. 'That includes' is used in restrictive clauses, where the information is essential to the meaning of the sentence. 'Which includes' is used in non-restrictive clauses, where the information is additional and can be omitted without changing the meaning.
