Figma's Terms of Service establish the conditions for accessing and using Figma's design platform, websites, and related services. The agreement grants Figma a license to use, reproduce, modify, and distribute content uploaded or created by users to operate, maintain, and improve the platform. The terms require dispute resolution through binding individual arbitration and prohibit class action litigation, and permit Figma to modify these terms with notice to users.
This document is Figma's Terms of Service, governing use of Figma's websites, applications, and services on a contract basis between Figma, Inc. and users or the organizations they represent. The agreement states that users retain ownership of their content but grant Figma a broad, worldwide, royalty-free license to use, reproduce, modify, distribute, and display that content to operate and improve the services; the terms also authorize Figma to suspend or terminate accounts for violations without prior notice, and establish that users are responsible for all activity under their accounts. Notably, the agreement includes a mandatory arbitration clause with a class action waiver, limiting users to individual arbitration rather than court proceedings or collective legal action, which represents a significant restriction on legal recourse commonly observed in SaaS terms but material for users to understand; the agreement also asserts a unilateral right to modify terms with notice by email or in-product notification, placing the burden on users to monitor for changes. The agreement engages GDPR and CCPA frameworks given Figma's global user base and its collection of account, usage, and content data; EU and UK users should note that certain arbitration and class action waiver provisions may be unenforceable under applicable consumer protection law in those jurisdictions. Business customers using Figma under a separate enterprise agreement should evaluate how these base terms interact with any supplemental data processing addenda or master service agreements.
