Consumer impact (what this means for users)

If you are a California resident, you can request that Canva show you what personal information it holds about you, delete it, correct it, or stop sharing it with advertising partners, and Canva states it will not penalize you for making these requests. Exercising the opt-out right for data sharing could limit the behavioral advertising you see as a result of Canva's data sharing practices.

What you can do

⚠️ These actions may provide transparency or partial mitigation but may not fully address the underlying issue. Effectiveness varies by jurisdiction and individual circumstances.
  • Delete Your Data
    Email privacy@canva.com stating that you are a California resident and wish to exercise your CCPA rights, specifying whether you want to access, delete, correct, or opt out of sharing of your personal information. Canva is required to respond within 45 days under California law.
