What we checked
We looked for a statement about a BAA on Canva's own pages and could not find one we could quote. These are the pages we checked:
- Canva Terms of Use
- Canva Acceptable Use Policy
- Canva Data Processing Addendum
- Canva Trust Center, Compliance
Until Canva puts a BAA in writing for you, treat it as a tool that has not agreed to protect patient data.
What this means for ad tracking
Healthcare marketing teams build ads, landing page graphics and patient flyers in Canva. The design is rarely the risk; a patient photo, a named testimonial or a pasted lead list can be.
Without a BAA, patient details and lead lists should stay out of Canva. The ads you design there still need a conversion signal that carries no health information.
Curve Compliance closes that gap: it sends the conversion itself server-side, under a BAA it signs on every plan, so your campaigns keep a conversion signal without a pixel carrying patient data. Book a call to see it on your own funnel.
A business associate agreement binds only the vendor that signs it, so each vendor that handles patient information for you needs its own.
How Curve helps
- Curve gives you a conversion signal that does not depend on Canva or a browser pixel carrying patient details.
- Server-side conversion tracking in place of pixels: conversions reach your ad platforms from Curve's server, not from the patient's browser.
- A fixed field list per platform, so each ad platform receives only the fields set for it.
- PHI-like pattern detection checks every event before it goes out, and neutral event names keep conditions and treatments out of what the platforms see.
- When identifiers are enabled, Curve hashes them with SHA-256.
- Consent management for your site, alongside the tracking.
- A HIPAA-compliant setup done by Curve's team, with a BAA signed on every plan.
