What it is

When you upload or create content on Figma, you give Figma a broad, worldwide license to use, host, reproduce, and display that content to provide and improve their services.

Why it matters

While you retain ownership of your designs, Figma can use your content in ways beyond just storing it — including to develop and improve their products.

Institutional analysis (Compliance & legal intelligence)

The scope of the content license may create IP ownership ambiguity for enterprise clients and should be assessed in the context of client confidentiality obligations; GDPR Article 6 lawful basis considerations may also apply to processing of personal data embedded in user content.

Consumer impact

Figma's ToS grants the company a broad license to use your content to operate and improve their services, limits your ability to sue them in court through mandatory arbitration, and allows them to suspend or terminate your account at their discretion. Users should be aware that by continuing to use Figma, they agree to resolve disputes through binding arbitration and waive class action rights. You can opt out of the arbitration clause by sending written notice to Figma within 30 days of first accepting the Terms.

Applicable agencies

  • FTC
    The FTC may review whether the scope of the content license is sufficiently disclosed to consumers and whether it constitutes an unfair or deceptive practice.
