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.
