What it is

Professional plan subscriptions automatically renew at the then-current rate and seat quantity on the renewal date unless cancelled through account settings before the end of the current subscription term. The AI Credits Subscription also automatically renews monthly regardless of whether the underlying plan is annual or monthly.

ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

This provision authorizes Figma to charge the Customer's payment method at renewal at the then-current pricing and current seat count without requiring additional affirmative authorization, which may result in charges exceeding the original subscription cost if pricing or seat quantity has changed.

The removal of the Subprocessors list link makes it less convenient for users, particularly enterprise and EU-based customers who rely on this information for data protection compliance, to verify which third parties Figma engages to process their data. While the subprocessor information may still exist on Figma's website, removing the direct link from the Terms of Service reduces accessibility and transparency. Enterprise customers and those subject to GDPR may need to contact Figma directly to access current subprocessor information.

Excerpt from Figma's Terms of Service

ConductAtlas Analysis

Institutional analysis (regulatory & governance intelligence)

(1) REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: Auto-renewal provisions in consumer-facing subscription contracts are regulated under California's Automatic Renewal Law (Business and Professions Code sections 17600 et seq.), which requires clear disclosure and affirmative consent before charging. The FTC Act Section 5 and the FTC's Negative Option Rule may also apply to subscription auto-renewal practices. Similar requirements exist in other U.S. states including New York and Illinois. (2) GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: Medium. The provision that renewal occurs at the then-current seat quantity means that seat additions made during a subscription term will be included in the renewal charge without a separate authorization step. Pricing change notices may be delivered via the platform or email, which may not constitute affirmative consent under applicable auto-renewal statutes in certain jurisdictions. (3) JURISDICTION FLAGS: California's Automatic Renewal Law imposes specific disclosure, consent, and cancellation requirements that may require evaluation against Figma's renewal notice and cancellation procedures. EU/EEA customers may have additional rights under applicable consumer protection directives regarding automatic contract renewal. The FTC's updated Negative Option Rule (effective 2024) imposes click-to-cancel and clear disclosure requirements that interact with these auto-renewal terms. (4) CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: Procurement teams should verify that their account seat quantity is accurate before renewal dates, as the Terms authorize renewal at the then-current seat count. The non-refundable fee provision (Section 3.5) means that excess seats renewed in error may not be recoverable. (5) COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: Legal and finance teams should establish calendar-based renewal monitoring processes and confirm that cancellation procedures through account settings satisfy the Terms' cancellation requirements. Compliance teams in California should evaluate whether Figma's renewal notification practices meet the California Automatic Renewal Law's requirements for clear and conspicuous disclosure.
