Why it matters

Parents and educators should be aware that Figma is not legally available to children under 13 (or 16 in the EU), and any use by minors below these ages violates the ToS and may result in account termination and deletion of the minor's data.

Consumer impact

Figma's ToS grants the company a broad license to use your uploaded design content, including for improving AI and machine learning features, which means your creative work may be used beyond what you intended when sharing it on the platform. US-based users lose the right to participate in class action lawsuits against Figma and must resolve disputes through individual binding arbitration, significantly limiting legal recourse. You can review and adjust your team or organization's content sharing settings within Figma's account dashboard, and EU/UK users should request a Data Processing Agreement from Figma to ensure GDPR-compliant handling of personal data.

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
    If you believe a minor under the applicable age threshold has created a Figma account, contact Figma's privacy team at privacy@figma.com to request deletion of the account and all associated personal data in compliance with COPPA/GDPR Art. 8.

Applicable agencies

  • FTC
    The FTC is the primary enforcement authority for COPPA compliance, including age verification requirements and restrictions on collecting personal data from children under 13.

  • Doe
