“Venmo’s finally getting the message that maximum publicity on a
financial app is a terrible idea,” says Kaili Lambe, senior campaigner
at the Mozilla Foundation, a nonprofit focused on Internet openness and
accessibility. “However, from the beginning we have been calling on
Venmo to be private by default, because so many Venmo users don’t
actually know that their transactions are public to the world.”

It's right there on page 86 of the Ts and Cs, paragraph 8, bullet point 5.

It's right after the section on binding arbitration and before the part
about prima nocta rights.
