Data Privacy and Security

Figma emphasizes data privacy and security in its AI features: - Data inputted into AI tools is processed by third-party models (e.g., OpenAI) but is not used for model training. - Customer data is encrypted and protected against unauthorized access, with strict permissions and user access controls. - Figma does not use private customer data for training AI models, instead relying on public, free Community files for specific use cases.
