Enable localized file hosting in the EU
To help European customers meet the local data protection standards outlined by GDPR, organizations on the Enterprise plan can host key parts of their Figma and FigJam files within the EU. Figma hosts its locally hosted data in Frankfurt, Germany (AWS EU Central 1), with back-ups hosted in Dublin, Republic of Ireland (AWS EU West 1).
What data can be localized to the EU?
Figma can localize key parts of Figma Design and FigJam file data:
| File data type | Localized |
|---|---|
| Shapes | Yes |
| Text Boxes | Yes |
| Sticky Notes | Yes (except sticky notes with @mentions) |
| Stamps | Yes |
| Frames | Yes |
| Components | Yes |
| Images | Yes |
| Videos | Yes |
| Comments | No |
| Plugins | No |
| File Names | No |
| Fonts | No |
| File Preview Thumbnails | No |
Data that lives outside of files, such as billing information, metadata, activity & security logs, indexed data for file search, Figma Community assets, user profile data, and any other data types not listed in the table above are not localized and are hosted in the US.
