Event Summary

Canva added a reference to 'SMS Terms' in the footer section of their Privacy Policy on June 11, 2026. Previously, this policy document link did not appear in the footer's 'Other policies' section. The addition indicates that Canva now has a separate SMS Terms document governing SMS communications, which users can access through the footer navigation.

LOW

Consumer Impact

Canva updated the footer of their Privacy Policy to include a link to 'SMS Terms', a separate policy document governing SMS communications. This change does not modify existing data handling practices but makes SMS-specific terms more discoverable in the footer navigation alongside other related policy documents. Users who communicate with Canva via SMS can now access dedicated SMS Terms through this link.

Governance Analysis

The addition of an SMS Terms link in the footer provides users with clearer access to SMS-specific policies governing text message communications. This improves navigation and disclosure organization but does not alter Canva's underlying data practices or obligations.

Institutional Analysis

Assessment

This change is a navigation and documentation update with minimal compliance significance. Canva added a footer link to 'SMS Terms' alongside existing policy links. No change to data processing obligations, consent mechanisms, or regulatory compliance frameworks is indicated. This appears to be a documentation organization update, likely reflecting existing SMS communication practices that were previously undocumented or documented elsewhere.
