Figma shares your personal data with a range of outside companies including payment processors, analytics firms, and advertising partners to support its business operations.
This analysis describes what Figma's agreement states, permits, or reserves. It does not constitute a legal determination about enforceability. Regulatory applicability and practical outcomes may vary by jurisdiction, enforcement context, and individual circumstances. Read our methodology
The breadth of third-party sharing, including with advertising partners, means your usage data and potentially other personal information may flow to companies outside Figma's direct control, with implications for targeted advertising and data aggregation.
Interpretive note: The policy does not enumerate specific advertising or analytics partners, making it difficult to assess the full scope of sharing in practice; actual data flows may be broader or narrower than the general disclosure suggests.
The updated terms now restrict how Figma may use personal information from children. Children may only use the Services through a Figma for Education Enterprise agreement with their school, and Figma explicitly prohibits using children's personal information to train or improve AI services, serve targeted advertisements, or enable third-party tracking. Parents may contact Figma if they learn a child provided personal information without consent outside of an education agreement.
