These updated Terms of Service will be effective November 12, 2026. Until the effective date, you can view our current Terms of Service here.

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of any website, app, service, technology, API, widget, platform, channel or any other products or features owned, operated, branded or offered by Pinterest (“Pinterest” or the “Service”), except where we expressly state that separate terms (and not these) apply. For the purposes of these Terms, “we” or “us” refers to the party with whom you are entering into this agreement, per Section 13(e) (Parties). Please read these Terms carefully, and contact us if you have any questions.

You may not use the Service to do or share anything that is contrary to these Terms. For clarity, these Terms include, and incorporate by reference, the following policies:

• Our Community Guidelines, which explain what is and isn’t allowed on Pinterest;
• Our Advertising Guidelines and Merchant Guidelines, which explain additional policies that apply to ads and merchants on Pinterest;
• Our Commercial and Branded Content Guidelines, which explain additional policies that apply to sponsored, branded or otherwise commercial content;
• Our Enforcement practices, which explain how we put our policies into practice, including restrictions we may impose on your content on or use of Pinterest; and
• Our GenAI Acceptable Use Guidelines, which explain how you may and may not use Pinterest’s generative AI tools.

By accessing or using Pinterest, you agree to comply with and be bound by these Terms and you will not attempt to circumvent them. If you do not agree to our Terms, you must not access or use Pinterest.

If you reside outside of the EEA, Switzerland and the United Kingdom, your acceptance of these Terms constitutes your consent to the processing activities described in our Privacy Policy under the laws of your jurisdiction.

Pinterest helps to bring everyone the inspiration to create a life they love. To do that, we show you things we think will be relevant, interesting and personal to you based on your onsite and offsite activity. To provide the Service, we need to be able to identify you and your interests, and we use your personal data to do this. For more information, please read our Privacy Policy. Some of the things we show you are promoted by advertisers. As part of the Service we try to ensure that even promoted content is relevant and interesting to you. You can identify promoted content because it will be clearly labeled.

You may use Pinterest only if you follow these Terms and all applicable laws. Using Pinterest may include downloading software to your computer, phone, tablet or other device. You agree that we may automatically update that software, and these Terms will apply to any updates. When you create your Pinterest account, you must provide us with accurate and complete information.

Any use or access to Pinterest by anyone under the age of 13 is not allowed. If you are older than 13, you can use Pinterest if you are over the minimum age of consent in your country. If you are 13 to 18, you may only use the Service with the permission of your parent or legal guardian. Please be sure your parent or legal guardian has reviewed and discussed these Terms with you.

If we’ve previously disabled your account for violating these Terms, any of our policies or for legal reasons, you will not create a new Pinterest account without our express written permission, which is provided at our sole discretion.

In using Pinterest, you agree not to scrape, collect, search, copy or otherwise access data or content from Pinterest in unauthorized ways, such as by using automated means (without our express prior permission), or access or attempt to access data you do not have permission to access.

You may not use, access, download, or otherwise make available the Service (including related software), except as authorized by applicable trade restrictions, including but not limited to US, EU and UK sanctions and export controls. You agree not to use the Service for any purpose prohibited by applicable trade restrictions.

Any use of Pinterest not expressly permitted by these Terms is a breach of these Terms and may violate copyright, trademark, and other laws.

Subject to your compliance with these Terms and our policies, we hereby grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable and revocable license to access and use the Service as contemplated under these Terms and our policies.

You may not permit Pinterest to be used by or for the benefit of unauthorized third parties. Nothing in these Terms will be construed to grant you any right to transfer or assign rights to access or use Pinterest. All rights not expressly granted to you are reserved by us and our licensors. Except as described in Section 3(b), you may not: (i) modify or make derivative works based upon the Service; (ii) reverse engineer the Service; or (iii) copy any features or functions of the Service.

If you want to use Pinterest for commercial purposes, you must create a business account and agree to our Business Terms of Service. If you do open an account for a company, organization or other entity, then "you" includes you and that entity, and you represent and warrant that you are authorized to grant all permissions and licenses provided in these Terms and bind the entity to these Terms, and that you agree to these Terms on the entity's behalf. To the extent that any provisions in the Business Terms of Service conflict with these Terms, the Business Terms of Service shall govern to the extent of the conflict.

If you post content on Pinterest that is sponsored or branded – like when a business partner pays or incentivizes you to post it – or is in any way commercial in nature, you are subject to our Commercial and Branded Content Guidelines.

Pinterest allows you to post content, including photos, videos, comments, links, and other materials. For the purpose of these Terms, anything that you post or otherwise make available on Pinterest is referred to as "User Content." You retain all rights in, and are solely responsible for, the User Content you post to Pinterest. All User Content must comply with these Terms and our policies, including our Community Guidelines.

You will only post User Content that you have the rights to post, and you won’t post User Content that infringes the intellectual property rights of others (e.g., copyright infringement, trademark infringement or counterfeit), or that is otherwise unlawful, unless an exception or limitation applies under applicable law. We can take action against User Content that violates these Terms or our policies or where we are permitted or required by law, such as by removing, restricting, or limiting access to, or distribution of, the content. We can also suspend or terminate accounts of users who repeatedly or seriously infringe third-party intellectual property rights, violate the law, these Terms, or our policies, or where permitted or required to do so by law. We are a neutral intermediary and we do not review all User Content before or after it is published on the Service, so we are not responsible or liable to any third party for the content or accuracy of any User Content posted by you or any other Pinterest user. For more information about how we enforce our policies or otherwise take action on content on Pinterest, see our Enforcement page. Where appropriate, you may appeal the decisions you think were made in error. You may have a right under local law to bring a claim for breach of contract if you believe we have breached these Terms by removing, restricting or limiting access to, or distribution of, your User Content, or suspending or terminating your account. Pinterest cannot provide you with legal advice.

By providing any User Content on the Service, you grant us and our affiliates and service providers, and our users, a non-exclusive, royalty-free, transferable, sublicensable, worldwide license to use, store, publicly perform or display, reproduce, save, modify, create derivative works, monetize, download, translate and distribute your User Content, including for the purpose of promoting and redistributing part or all of the Pinterest Service. Nothing in these Terms: (i) entitles you to any payments or the right to share in any revenue from any monetization of User Content; or (ii) restricts other legal rights we may have to User Content, for example under other licenses. We reserve the right to remove, limit distribution of, or modify User Content, or change the way it’s used in Pinterest. This not only includes User Content that we believe violates these Terms, but also our Community Guidelines, our Copyright Policy, our Trademark Policy or any of our other policies, or other circumstances where we feel such action is in the best interest of Pinterest or our Users.

Content recommendations on Pinterest are made based on a combination of factors. Your recommendations are mainly influenced by how you engage with our Service, the topics we think you’re interested in and how interested you are in them, and what other users who share your similar characteristics and interests like. The relative importance of these criteria is influenced by how you engage with our Service, including how often you engage, your saves, and your hides.

You can adjust how recommendations are made in your Privacy and Data Settings, and through your Home Feed Tuner.

Following termination or deactivation of your account, or User Content removal from Pinterest, we may keep your User Content for a reasonable period of time for backup, archival, or audit purposes. We and our users may retain and continue to use, store, display, reproduce, save, modify, create derivative works, perform, and distribute any of your User Content that you or other users have stored or shared on Pinterest.

We value hearing from our users and are always interested in learning about ways we can make Pinterest more awesome. If you choose to submit comments, ideas, or feedback, you agree that we have no obligation to keep your feedback confidential or to compensate you for the feedback. Do not submit any feedback that is confidential or owned by any third party. By accepting your submission, we don’t waive any rights to use similar or related feedback previously known to us, or developed by our employees, or obtained from sources other than you.

Pinterest offers reporting channels that you may use to tell us about content on Pinterest that you think violates these Terms, our policies, or local law. We will review your report and take any appropriate action in a timely fashion. In using these channels, you agree to submit reports in good faith and not misuse any reporting or appeals channel by making baseless reports or appeals. Visit our Help Center to learn more about how to report content on Pinterest.

Pinterest has adopted and implemented our Copyright Policy and Trademark Policy in accordance with applicable intellectual property laws.

You acknowledge and agree that, as between you and us, we own all right, title and interest in and to Pinterest and all intellectual property rights (including but not limited to the copyrights, trademarks and patents) therein (the “Pinterest IP”) and you must not use any of the Pinterest IP, except as necessary for your permitted use of Pinterest. For clarity, Pinterest IP does not include User Content.

If you use Pinterest IP in breach of these Terms, your right to use Pinterest will terminate immediately and you must, at our option, return or destroy any copies of the Pinterest IP you have made. No right, title or interest in or to Pinterest or any Pinterest IP is transferred to you under these Terms, and we reserve all rights not expressly granted.

We care about the security of our users. While we work to protect the security of your User Content and account, we can’t guarantee that unauthorized third parties won’t be able to defeat our security measures. Keep your password secure and do not disclose it to any other person or entity. Please notify us immediately of any unauthorized access to your account or any other breach of security.

Pinterest may contain links to third party websites, advertisers, services, software components, special offers or other events or activities that are not owned or controlled by us. We don’t endorse or assume any responsibility for any such third party websites, information, materials, products or services. If you access any third party website, service or content, etc. from Pinterest, you do so at your own risk and you agree that we have no liability arising from your use of, purchase from or access to any third party website, service, or content, etc. By accessing YouTube content on Pinterest, you also agree to be bound by YouTube’s Terms of Service.

We may terminate or suspend your right to access or use Pinterest for any violation of these Terms. Where appropriate, we will provide you with written notice and you may appeal a decision you think was made in error. For more information about how we enforce our policies or otherwise take action on content on Pinterest, see our Enforcement page.

You may also terminate or delete your account at any time. You can learn how to delete your account in our Help Center.

Upon termination, Sections 3, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, and 13 of these Terms will continue to be operative.

If you use Pinterest for commercial purposes without agreeing to our Business Terms as required by Section 2(c) of these Terms, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless Pinterest, Inc., Pinterest Europe Ltd., and their affiliates from any claims (including reasonable attorney’s fees) relating to your use of our Service. Pinterest reserves the right, at its own cost, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification, in which event you will fully cooperate with Pinterest.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Service and all content on Pinterest is provided on an "as is" basis without warranty of any kind, whether express or implied.

Pinterest specifically disclaims any and all warranties and conditions of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement, and any warranties arising out of course of dealing or usage of trade.

Pinterest takes no responsibility and assumes no liability for any User Content that you or any other person or third party posts or sends using the Service. You understand and agree that you may be exposed to User Content that's inaccurate, objectionable, inappropriate for children, or otherwise unsuited to your purpose.

We do not warrant that Pinterest or any portion of the Service, or any materials or content offered through Pinterest, are accurate, complete, or current, or will be uninterrupted, secure, or free of errors, viruses, or other harmful components.

We may make changes to Pinterest for various reasons. We will have no liability for any change to Pinterest or any suspension or termination of your access to, or use of Pinterest.

The limitations, exclusions, and disclaimers in this section apply to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, we shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or any loss of profits or revenues, whether incurred directly or indirectly, or any loss of data, use, goodwill, or other intangible losses, resulting from (a) your access to or use of or inability to access or use the Service; (b) any conduct or content of any third party on the Service, including without limitation, any defamatory, offensive or illegal conduct of other users or third parties; or (c) unauthorized access, use or alteration of your transmissions or content.

In no event shall our aggregate liability for all claims relating to the Service exceed one hundred U.S. dollars (U.S. $100.00). The foregoing does not affect any liability that cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law.

If we cause damage to you and you're a consumer in the EEA or UK, the above doesn't apply. Instead, Pinterest's liability will be limited to foreseeable damages arising due to a breach of material contractual obligations typical for this type of contract. Pinterest isn't liable for damages that result from a non-material breach of any other applicable duty of care. This limitation of liability won't apply to any statutory liability that cannot be limited, to liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence or willful misconduct, or to exclude our responsibility for something we have specifically promised to you.

If you are a consumer in the EEA, Switzerland, or the United Kingdom (UK), Section 11 does not apply to you.

a. Mandatory Informal Resolution

Before starting arbitration or filing any claim, you and Pinterest must each send the other written notice of the claim, a description of the claim, and the relief sought (an individual claimant’s notice must be personally signed). Your notice to Pinterest must be sent to litigation@pinterest.com and cover only one claimant. You and Pinterest agree to work together in good faith to resolve it for 60 days. This dispute resolution process is a mandatory requirement and a condition precedent. Neither party may file arbitration, or a court action, before completing this step. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may bring an action to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or violation of a party’s intellectual property rights.

b. Arbitration Agreement

If that doesn’t resolve the dispute, you and we agree that any claim, dispute, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service (“Claim”) will be resolved through binding, individual arbitration administered by JAMS under its Comprehensive Arbitration Rules & Procedures ("JAMS Rules"), as modified by this Section 11, or in small claims court for qualifying claims. The Federal Arbitration Act applies to and governs this Arbitration Agreement and pre-empts all state laws to the fullest extent possible. This Arbitration Agreement applies to any Claim you have not filed in court or in arbitration before the date you agreed to these Terms, and supersedes and amends any prior arbitration agreement between you and Pinterest, including as to Claims that arose before this or any prior arbitration agreement.

You and Pinterest each waive the right to a jury trial. Except as set out in subsection (c) for Mass Filings, to the fullest extent permitted by law, you and Pinterest agree that each party can only bring Claims in an individual capacity and not as a plaintiff or class member in any class, consolidated, private attorney general, or representative proceeding. This waiver survives even if the rest of this Section 11 is found unenforceable or invalid. Except as set out in subsection (c) for Mass Filings, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s Claims and may not otherwise preside over any class, collective, consolidated, or representative proceeding.

A court, not the arbitrator, decides whether a valid arbitration agreement exists but the arbitrator decides all issues relating to the interpretation, applicability, or enforceability of this arbitration agreement, including any dispute regarding arbitrability. A request for public injunctive relief will not be decided by or awarded by the arbitrator and must be decided by a court after the rest of the Claim is arbitrated. A single, confidential arbitration will be held before one arbitrator, whose decision binds only the parties involved. This Section 11 doesn’t prevent either party from seeking relief from a government agency or provisional court relief (like a temporary injunction) and doing so will not waive the right to arbitrate. Claims that aren’t arbitrable will be resolved under Section 12 (Governing Law). Payment of arbitration fees is governed by the JAMS Rules, except that the arbitrator may impose sanctions available under the JAMS Rules, Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11, or any applicable law against any party or counsel who violates them, including assigning fees and costs to a party found to have brought a frivolous or improperly motivated claim or defense. Any party to the arbitration, more than ten (10) days before the arbitration hearing, may serve a written offer of compromise on the other party which will be interpreted and enforced in accordance with California Code of Civil Procedure section 998.

This Section 11 will survive the termination of your relationship with Pinterest. Except as set forth any part of this Section 11 is found unenforceable, unconscionable, or unlawful the rest remains in effect and Pinterest and you may still compel individual arbitration of the remaining Claims.

c. Mass Filing

If 25 or more claimants file similar Claims against Pinterest either within 90 days, or are represented by, assisted by, or otherwise coordinated with the same law firm, group of law firms, or other coordinated counsel or entities (a “Mass Filing”), all of those Claims will be consolidated into one arbitration before one arbitrator with a single set of filing and administrative fees rather than separate fees per claimant or Claim. The JAMS Mass Arbitration Procedures and Guidelines and JAMS Mass Arbitration Fee Schedule will apply to your Claim and the claims of all other claimants that are part of the Mass Filing, as modified by this Section 11(c). Claims are similar if they arise from or are related to similar facts or circumstances and raise similar legal issues or causes of action. A Process Arbitrator will decide any dispute over similarity of Claims. If any of claimant’s lawyers, law firms, group of law firms or their business partners or funders (“funder”) is advancing that claimant’s fees or costs, the Process Arbitrator may also divide all fees and costs (including all arbitrator’s fees) between that funder and Pinterest as the Process Arbitrator deems fair. In the final decision, the arbitrator can reevaluate and divide the arbitration fees and costs among Pinterest, the claimants, and the claimants’ lawyers, law firms, and group of law firms in amounts they see fit to ensure a fair division among the parties.

Pinterest and each claimant shall have the right to opt-out of arbitration if JAMS declines to enforce this subsection 11(c) of the arbitration agreement, refuses to administer any portion of a Mass Filing in accordance with this subsection 11(c), refuses to consolidate Claims into one arbitration before one arbitrator with a single set of filing and administrative fees as set forth in this subsection 11(c), or otherwise finds these any portion of this subsection 11(c) is unconscionable, unenforceable, or unlawful. If either party elects to opt-out of arbitration, then you and we agree that you may pursue your Claim in court subject to section 12.

Any applicable limitations period (including statutes of limitation) and any filing-fee deadlines shall be tolled beginning when the Mandatory Pre-Arbitration Notice and Informal Dispute Resolution Procedures are initiated, so long as the Mandatory Pre-Arbitration Notice complies with the requirements in this Section 11, until a party’s Claim or demand for arbitration claim is consolidated or a party opts-out of arbitration.

d. Right to Opt Out

You may opt out of this Section 11 within 30 days of first becoming subject to it by emailing litigation@pinterest.com with your name, account email, and a statement that you’re opting out; otherwise you agree to be bound by it.

If you are a consumer in the EEA, Switzerland, or the UK, these Terms and your use of the Service shall be governed by the law of the country where you live, and any claim, dispute, or controversy arising from or in connection with or relating to these Terms, Pinterest, or the Service shall be resolved in the courts of the country where you live.

In all other cases, these Terms and your use of the Service shall be governed by the laws of the State of California, without respect to its conflict of laws principles. For any actions not subject to Section 11 (Arbitration), the exclusive place of jurisdiction for any claim, dispute, or controversy arising from or in connection with these Terms or the Service is San Francisco County, California, or the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, and such disputes will be determined under California law.

We may revise, add, or remove any or all portions of these Terms from time to time and the most current version will always be posted on our website. Unless otherwise required by law, we’ll notify you of any material changes to these Terms before any update enters into effect. Your continued access to or use of Pinterest after such an update constitutes your binding acceptance of such changes. Disputes arising under these Terms will be resolved in accordance with the version of these Terms in place at the time the dispute arose. For clarity, by continuing to use Pinterest, you are agreeing to be bound by the then-current version of these Terms.

If you’re a consumer in the EEA, Switzerland, or the UK, either you or we may assign this agreement, and any rights and licenses granted under it, to a third party. In all other cases, these Terms, and any rights and licenses granted hereunder, may not be transferred or assigned by you, but may be assigned by us without restriction. Any attempted transfer or assignment in violation hereof shall be null and void.

In case of such an assignment by us, you are entitled to terminate the agreement with immediate effect by deactivating your account. We will provide you with reasonable notice of any such assignment.

These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and us concerning the Service. If any provision of these Terms is deemed invalid, then that provision will be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions of these Terms will remain in full force and effect.

No waiver of any provision of these Terms shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such provision or any other provision, and our failure to assert any right or provision under these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.

If you live in the United States, these Terms are a contract between you and Pinterest, Inc., 651 Brannan Street, San Francisco, CA 94107. If you live outside the United States, these Terms are a contract between you and Pinterest Europe Ltd., an Irish company with its registered office at Waterloo Exchange, 3rd Floor, Waterloo Road, Dublin 4, Ireland. As Pinterest is a worldwide service, you agree that any rights and licenses granted hereunder benefit Pinterest, Inc. and all of its worldwide subsidiaries and affiliates.

Effective date: November 12, 2026
