The updated Terms of Use no longer include language describing Canva's use of non-essential cookies for personalization, advertising, and analytics, nor do they reference how users can manage cookie preferences. Previously, the terms explicitly stated Canva would use cookies 'to improve and personalise your visit, tailor ads you see from us on Canva and partner sites, and to analyse our website's performance, but only if you accept.' This disclosure and consent mechanism have been removed from the main terms document. Users seeking information about cookie practices and consent options may need to consult Canva's separate cookie policy or privacy disclosures.

This does not necessarily mean Canva has stopped using such cookies, but the specific disclosure and choice mechanism previously stated in the Terms have been removed.
